In a great collaboration with the team of Alan Lyons (City University of New York) and the colleagues from the Fraunhofer ISC, we demonstrate how to contribute to enhanced self-cleaning of glass, partly coated with dagger-shaped features from silica nanoparticles. The article was just accepted in So...

Congratulations Susanne and Karma Zuraiqi (RMIT) and who pulled this together, and Torben Daeneke, Ken Chiang, Julien Bachmann and Peter Wasserscheid who are co-CI's for this grant.   This mobility grant allows researchers from Germany and Australia to engage in an exchange of ideas regar...

Congratulations to Jakob for having successfully finished his PhD. Jakob did a fantastic job: his thesis on "Supraparticle designs for micrometer-sized information providers" was graded with summa cum laude!

At the first Battery Direct Recycling Conference held in Würzburg, Sara Li Deuso gave an insight into her research on magnetic supraparticles as identifiers in single-layer lithium-ion battery pouch cells. She received an award for the best poster - including a nice t-shirt! More on the topic can...

We celebrate Bastian Fett’s successful defense of his PhD thesis entitled "Innovative material concepts for tandem solar cells”! Congratulations Basti!

And another article was just accepted where we demonstrate, together with the battery colleagues from the Fraunhofer ISC, how to mark batteries with magnetic ID supraparticles – just accepted in ChemSusChem. Deuso S., Ziegler S., Weber D., Breuer F., Haddad D., Müssig S., Flegler A., Giffin G.A.,...

Again good news come in pairs: RSC Energy & Environmental Science just accepted the work by colleagues at Fraunhofer ISC and us in which we discuss our thoughts and ideas on “the battery tug-of-war” when it comes to making the battery world more sustainable. Wolf A., Nagler F., Daubinger P., ...

Step by step we understand better how interactions among magnetic nanoparticles in supraparticle structures yield certain signal fingerprints in MPS. The latest work was just accepted by Particle and Particle Systems Characterization. Wolf A., Zhou H., Groppe P., Stiegler L.M.S., Kämäräinen T., P...

Karl had the honor to be one of 7 referees for a PhD defense in Belgium. With that honor comes the joy of dressing up in a traditional manner. See picture attached.
