Mystery of two-dimensional quasicrystal formation from metal oxides solved

"We are excited to learn whether this special arrangement will produce completely new and useful properties"

31-Jan-2023

The structure of two-dimensional titanium oxide brakes-up at high temperatures by adding barium; instead of regular hexagons, rings of four, seven and ten atoms are created that order aperiodically. A team at Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg (MLU) made this discovery in colaboration with ...

Scientists develop a new kind of printable, wearable insect repellent

12-Oct-2022

A new type of insect-repellent delivery device has been developed by scientists from the Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg (MLU). With the help of a 3D printer, the active ingredient is first "encapsulated" and formed into the desired shape, such as a ring, which can then be worn and ...

Green chemistry: Scientists develop new process for more eco-friendly liquid crystals

It is faster, more energy-efficient and promises a high yield

03-Mar-2022

Liquid crystals could soon be produced more efficiently and in a more environmentally friendly way. A new process has been developed by researchers at Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg (MLU) in Germany, Bangalore University in India and Cairo University in Egypt. Compared to conventional ...

Researchers show how synthetic rubber raw material can be degraded

The researchers' goal is to be able to break down other similar substances from car tires in the future

13-Dec-2021

Enzymes are capable of degrading synthetic polyisoprene. The specific conditions for that have now been created and exploited by researchers at Martin Luther-University Halle-Wittenberg (MLU) and the Leibniz Institute of Plant Biochemistry (IPB). Polyisoprene is the principal component of natural ...

Researchers develop novel, inexpensive catalysts enabling noble metal chemistry

"With our new approach, we can mimic the interaction of gold and alkyne species at the electron level"

25-Nov-2021

Alkynes have many uses in industry. Until now, it was assumed that gold- or platinum-based catalysts were absolutely necessary for certain chemical reactions with alkynes. Chemists at Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg (MLU) have now succeeded in carrying out the same reactions with ...

Solar cells: Layer of three crystals produces a thousand times more power

The result surprised even the research group

21-Jul-2021

The photovoltaic effect of ferroelectric crystals can be increased by a factor of 1,000 if three different materials are arranged periodically in a lattice. This has been revealed in a study by researchers at Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg (MLU). They achieved this by creating ...
