Bernd Rech will focus on renewable energy issues.

Prof. Bernd Rech will speak on recent findings in thin film silicon photovoltaik research at the autumn meeting of the energy work group of the Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft. Rech had been elected into the board of the work group earlier this year.

Main topic will be polycrystalline silicon thin films on glas. HZB researchers were able to increase the efficiency of these solar cells considerably

As speaker of the renewable energy program of the Helmholtz Association, Bernd Rech intends to discuss issues of the turnaround in energy policy in his new role in the DPG.

The autumn meeting of the DPG energy work group wil be in Bad Honnef on October 1 and 2. The Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft is an organisation that has as its member scientists working in universities, research institutions, and the industry as well as teachers and (PhD-)students. There are also about 160 institutional members.

    Michael Naguib is visiting HZB as a Humboldt Research Awardee
    Professor Michael Naguib, from Tulane University in the USA, is one of the discoverers of a new class of 2D materials: MXenes are characterised by a puff pastry-like structure and have many applications, such as in the production of green hydrogen or as storage media for electrical energy. During his Humboldt Research Award in 2025, Professor Naguib is working with Prof Volker Presser at the Leibniz Institute for New Materials in Saarbrücken and with Dr Tristan Petit at HZB.

    AI in Chemistry: Study Highlights Strengths and Weaknesses
    How well does artificial intelligence perform compared to human experts? A research team at HIPOLE Jena set out to answer this question in the field of chemistry. Using a newly developed evaluation method called “ChemBench,” the researchers compared the performance of modern language models such as GPT-4 with that of experienced chemists.
