Nanomechanics and TEM for enhancing the ductility of metallic thin films
A cooperation between GRK and CENEM researchers unraveled the unexpected positive influence of grain boundary mediated plasticity on the ductility of metallic thin films, with far ranging consequences for applications. The limited ductility of metallic thin films (< 1%) poses a challenge to MEMS and flexible electronics applications. A groups of GRK and CENEM scientists […]

Effective method for removing nanoplastics and microplastics from water
CENEM and GRK members contributed by investigating the morphology and the agglomeration of SPIONs and nano plastic particles by employing scale-briding electron and X-ray microscopy and tomography techniques. The corresponding paper is now published in Materials Today, further details and background information can be found in the press release.

CENEM reaearch provides novel insights into the mechanical and electrical failure of flexible silver nanowire electrodes
The paper on “Microscopic Deformation Modes and Impact of Network Anisotropy on the Mechanical and Electrical Performance of Five-fold Twinned Silver Nanowire Electrodes” by Nadine Schrenker and colleagues has been recently published in ACS Nano. Congratulations! Silver nanowire (AgNW) networks show excellent optical, electrical, and mechanical properties, which make them ideal candidates for transparent electrodes […]The paper on “Microscopic Deformation Modes and Impact of Network Anisotropy on the Mechanical and Electrical Performance of Five-fold Twinned Silver Nanowire Electrodes” by Nadine Schrenker and colleagues has been recently published in ACS Nano.
