Researchers aim to make soft, elastic material more tear-resistant
FAU study shows that the extent of cross-linking between the polymer molecules is one of the key factors here. Soft materials like rubber or silicone tear easily under tensile stress. In a project funded by the European Research Council (ERC), researchers from Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg are looking for ways to make such materials more stable. In […]

Solar power: Automated development of materials for solar cells
Thanks to high-throughput experiments and machine learning, FAU researchers are accelerating the search for chemical compounds for high-performance elements. A team of researchers from Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU), the Helmholtz Institute Erlangen-Nürnberg for Renewable Energy (HI ERN) and the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) have developed a closed process for finding optimal high-performance materials for perovskite […]Thanks to high-throughput experiments and machine learning, FAU researchers are accelerating the search for chemical compounds for high-performance elements.
