The Comenius-EduMedia-Award is granted for outstanding examples of digital educational media. 1 July 2019 First demonstration of a Germanium laser Scientist at the Paul Scherrer Institut and ETH Zürich, with colleagues from CEA Grenoble, have demonstrated and characterized a technology that, for the first time, yields lasing from strained elemental Germanium. This achievement underlines PSI’s leading role in the development of Silicon-compatible laser light sources. 27 June 2019 Soichiro Tsujino is one of the APL top reviewers of 2018 The editors of Applied Physics Letters (APL) named Dr. Soichiro Tsujino, head of the XFEL nanoengineering group of LMN, as one of the 16 ALP top reviewers in 2018. 25 May 2019 From semiconductors to quantum technologies symposium While information technology over the last 50 years has been based on conventional semiconductor electronics, future technologies – aiming to enhance the performance of computers, sensors and to secure data communication for the future internet – will use the quantum origins of nature. This symposium highlighted the opportunities for the traditional semiconductor materials to remain the platform on which also the new quantum technologies will build on. The symposium, in part a celebration of the career of PSI Quantum Technologies group leader Hans Sigg, was held at ETHZ and included notable speakers both local and international, Gabriel Aeppli (PSI, ETHZ & EPFL), Jérôme Faist & Klaus Ensslin (ETHZ), Theo Rasing (RU Nijmegen), Giordano Scappucci (QuTech-TU Delft) and Klaus von Klitzing (MPI Stuttgart). 27 February 2019 Supramolecular architectures of molecularly thin yet robust free-standing layers In a collaboration within the network of the Swiss Nanoscience Institute, the formation of free-standing molecular monolayers using self-assembly processes has been demonstrated. The results of the study have been published in the February 2019 issue of Science Advances. 4 January 2019 Dr Yasin Ekinci elected as Fellow of SPIE Dr. Yasin Ekinci, Head of the Advanced Lithography and Metrology Group and ad interim Head of the Laboratory for Micro and Nanotechnology, has been elected to the grade of Fellow of The International Society for Optics and Photonics (SPIE). 17 December 2018 Data storage using individual molecules The research group of Prof. T.A. Jung at the University of Basel has reported on a new method that allows the physical state of just a few atoms or molecules within a network to be controlled. 6 December 2018 2018 Innovation Award on Synchrotron Radiation The Innovation Award on Synchrotron Radiation 2018 went to Dr. Christian David, also from the Paul Scherrer Institute, and to Prof. Alexei Erko, who recently moved from the HZB to the Institute for Applied Photonics (IAP) in Berlin-Adlershof. 1 2 3 4 Next page ›› Last page Last » >>> Archive Items 2012-15 Sidebar Contact Laboratory for Micro-and Nanotechnology Paul Scherrer Institut 5232 Villigen PSI Switzerland Head a.i.Dr. Yasin Ekinci Secretary Ms. Anne Sacher Tel +41 56 310 2814 Fax +41 56 310 2646 Email: annekathrin.sacher@psi.ch Photon Science Division Homepage of PSI Division Photon Science (PSD)
