Lise-Meitner-Campus
Prof. David C. Dunand
Dept. of Materials Science and Engineering Northwestern University Evanston, Illinois, USA
These alloys have excellent thermal and electrical conductivity, together with high ambient strength and creep resistance up to 300 ºC, for applications such as brake rotors, power lines and heat sinks. The effects of adding Li and Yb to dilute Al-Sc alloys are investigated in detail by mechanical testing, transmission electron microscopy and atom-probe tomography.

Spins as Functional Probes in Solar Energy Research
Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin für Materialien und Energie, Institut für Silizium-Photovoltaik, Kekuléstraße 5, 12489 Berlin
The practicality of photovoltaic (PV) devices has been demonstrated by the technological development and successful commercialization of crystalline silicon solar cells. Yet, PV electricity production is still not fully price competitive to conventional energy sources, which results in a dramatic mismatch between our present-day PV use and its enormous undeveloped potential. To bridge this gap, research

A novel restricted open shell configuration interaction approach to the calculation of transition metal L-edges is introduced. The presented method is based on a Kohn-Sham density functional reference determinant for the entire molecular system (or cluster model) and accounts for spin-orbit coupling via quasi-degenerate perturbation theory. This procedure is the molecular equivalent of Russell-Saunders

As an elementary particle the electron carries spin h/2 and charge e. When binding to the atomic nucleus it also acquires an angular momentum quantum number corresponding to the quantized atomic orbital it occupies (e.g., s, p or d). Even if electrons in solids form bands and delocalize from the nuclei, in Mott insulators they retain their three fundamental quantum numbers: spin, charge and orbital. The hallmark of one-dimensional (1D) physics is a breaking up of the elementary electron into its separate degrees of freedom. The separation of the electron into independent quasi-particles that carry either spin (spinons) or charge (holons) was first observed fifteen years ago. Using Resonant Inelastic X-ray Scattering on the 1D Mott-insulator Sr2CuO3 we now observe also the orbital degree of freedom separating. We resolve an orbiton liberating itself from spinons and propagating through the lattice as a distinct quasi-particle with a substantial dispersion of ~0.2 eV.

"Wasser, Essig, Öl: Sie mischen - und sie mischen nicht!"
Jeder weiß, manche Flüssigkeiten mischen, manche nicht. So mischen sich „wasserliebende“(hydrophile) Substanzen wie Essig und „wassermeidende“ (hydrophobe) wie Öl zwar untereinander, gegenseitig aber nicht. Grenzflächeneffekte können das Mischungsverhalten nun völlig auf den Kopf stellen: Auf einmal mischen sich grundsätzliche mischbare Flüssigkeiten zeitweise nicht mehr oder Flüssigkeiten entmischen sogar wieder, wenn sich die Zusammensetzung der Flüssigkeit durch äußere Einflüsse wie z.B. Verdunstung lokal ändert.
