Forschungszentrum Jülich - Electronic Materials (PGI-7)

Our research, undertaken in close cooperation with our partner institute at RWTH Aachen University, focuses on the nanoelectronics of the future. To this end, we investigate electronic phenomena in oxides and electronically-active organic molecules.

The Brain as a Model for the Computer Technology of Tomorrow

Jülich, 8 January 2020 – Forschungszentrum Jülich hopes to work together with RWTH Aachen University to create added value in the Rhineland using neuro-inspired computer technologies. Researchers at Jülich are already working with scientists from RWTH Aachen University on innovative materials and components for these technologies. The German Federal Government is funding the research project, run by Prof. Waser, with over € 13 million within the scope of its immediate action programme for structural change.

PGI Colloquium: Prof. Dr. J. Paul Attfield, University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh, UK

Early concepts of magnetism emerged from studies of magnetic minerals, notably magnetite (Fe3O4). Today we know of many types of magnetism and magnetic materials, but transition metal oxides remain important as they are based on abundant, non-toxic elements and can offer large magnetisations at room temperature.
