New method for the mechanical formation of three-dimensional molecular structures

HU researchers develop light-powered nano-motor and use it to create ring-shaped, intertwined molecules:

Threads or ropes can easily be used for braiding, knotting, and weaving. In chemistry, however, processing molecular strands in this way is an almost impossible task. This is because molecules are not only tiny, they…

Research team succeeds in controlled formation of skyrmion bags

The complex structures in thin ferromagnetic materials are important for future spintronic devices:

A team of researchers at the Max Born Institute and collaborating institutions has developed a reliable method to create complex magnetic textures, known as skyrmion bags, in thin ferromagnetic films. Skyrmion bags…

How quantum particles communicate

Nanophysicist Günter Kewes brings complex physics to life during Berlin’s Long Night of the Sciences:

We owe solar panels, smartphones, MRI scanners, and even supermarket barcode readers to quantum physics. For this reason, the UN General Assembly has declared 2025 the International Year of Quantum Science and…
