The Peter Grünberg Institute (PGI) is dedicated to the discovery and interpretation of new phenomena in condensed matter, the development of novel materials and functional structures at the nano- and quantum-scale as well as innovation in experimental and theoretical methods. Our research places emphasis on potential long-term applications in information technology and related fields. A special focus lies on quantum materials, quantum computing and neuromorphic computing.

Neuromorphic Computing on the Road to Application

The aim of the NEUROTEC project is to develop hardware and algorithms for highly efficient computers modelled on the human brain, and so to lay the foundations for new value creation in the Rhineland region. The collaborative project coordinated by Forschungszentrum Jülich is now entering its second funding phase, with the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) allocating it a total of around €36 million in funding for the next five years.

PGI-Colloquium - Hybrid Event: Prof. Dr. Alexander Gray, Temple University, Philadelphia, USA

Emergent phenomena at complex-oxide interfaces have become a vibrant field of study in the past two decades due to the rich physics and a wide range of possibilities for creating new states of matter and novel functionalities for potential devices. Electronic-structural characterization of such phenomena presents a unique challenge due to the lack of direct yet non-destructive techniques for probing buried layers and interfaces with the required Ångstrom-level resolution, as well as element and orbital specificity.
