Electronic Properties

At the PGI "Electronic Properties" Institute, we explore the interrelations between electronic structure and physical properties such as magnetism and magnetic phenomena by applying, for example, synchrotron radiation techniques. Systems of interest range from thin film systems, quantum wires and dots to molecules. Keywords here are nanosciences, spintronics, quantum computing, and giant magnetoresistance.

Prof. Astrid Lambrecht, Chair of the Board of Directors, awarded Forschungszentrum Jülich’s Excellence Prize to three outstanding young researchers. Dr. Iulia Cojocariu, Dr. Alexander van Meegen, and Dr. Moritz L. Weber accepted the award, which is endowed with € 5,000 each, on Saturday, 12 August 2023, during the JuDocs Ceremony. “This year’s Jülich Excellence Prize honours the achievements of Dr. Iulia Cojocariu, Dr. Alexander van Meegen, and Dr. Moritz L. Weber – three young scientists in the fields of materials and energy research as well as neuroscience.

Materials science

Materials engineering in flatland

A team of physicists from Forschungszentrum Jülich and the University of Graz has achieved a breakthrough in the development and characterisation of 2D-MOFs, a special type of two-dimensional material. They were able to show how the structure of the materials is formed and which electronic and magnetic properties are associated with it.
