Chemists achieve breakthrough in the synthesis of graphene nanoribbons
Graphene Nanoribbons might soon be much easier to produce
29-Jun-2020
An international research team led by Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg (MLU), the University of Tennessee and Oak Ridge National Laboratory in the U.S. has succeeded in producing this versatile material for the first time directly on the surface of semiconductors. Until now, this was ...
Chemists are able to induce uniform chirality
Findings could be significant for development of new active substances and materials science
10-Jun-2020
Chirality is a fundamental property of many organic molecules and means that chemical compounds can appear in not only one form, but in two mirror-image forms as well. Chemists at Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg have now found a way to spontaneously induce chirality in crystalline, ...
Electrolysis: How to produce better electrodes
Another step forward for renewable energies: The production of green hydrogen could be even more efficient in the future
15-May-2020
By applying an unusual process step, chemists at Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg (MLU) have found a way to treat inexpensive electrode materials and considerably improve their properties during electrolysis. Hydrogen is thought to be the solution to the storage problem of renewable ...
Forward or backward? New pathways for protons in water or methanol
10-Oct-2019
A collaborative ultrafast spectroscopy and ab initio molecular dynamics simulations study, as recently published by scientists of the Max Born Institute of Nonlinear Optics and Short Pulse Spectroscopy (MBI) and the Martin-Luther-University Halle-Wittenberg (MLU) in the Journal of the American ...
New material for highly efficient data processing
12-Sep-2019
A new material could aid in the development of extremely energy efficient IT applications. The material was discovered by an international research team in cooperation with Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg (MLU). The electrons at the oxide interface of the material possess special ...
Cement as a climate killer: Using industrial residues to produce carbon neutral alternatives
21-May-2019
Producing cement takes a big toll on our climate: Around eight per cent of annual global carbon dioxide emissions can be attributed to this process. However, the demand for cement continues to rise. A team of geoscientists from Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg (MLU) has found a way to ...
New study shows people used natural dyes to colour their clothing thousands of years ago
23-Apr-2019
Even thousands of years ago people wore clothing with colourful patterns made from plant and animal-based dyes. Chemists from Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg (MLU) have created new analytical methods to examine textiles from China and Peru that are several thousand years old. In the ...
New process discovered: Mere sunlight can be used to eradicate pollutants in water
27-Nov-2018
Advances in environmental technology: You don’t need complex filters and laser systems to destroy persistent pollutants in water. Chemists at Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg (MLU) have developed a new process that works using mere sunlight. The process is so simple that it can even be ...
A simple, easy-to-use method to break down pollutants in water
08-Feb-2018
Chemists from Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg (MLU) have found out how stubborn pollutants in water can be disintegrated easily and cost-effectively. To do so researchers only need a green LED light, a catalyst and vitamin C. In this way, they can produce special types of electrons that ...
Bacteria produce gold by digesting toxic metals
01-Feb-2018
High concentrations of heavy metals, like copper and gold, are toxic for most living creatures. This is not the case for the bacterium C. metallidurans, which has found a way to extract valuable trace elements from a compound of heavy metals without poisoning itself. One interesting side-effect: ...
