A new spin in nano-electronics
In recent years, electronic data processing has been evolving in one direction only: The industry has downsized its components to the nanometer range. But this process is now reaching its physical limits. Researchers at the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR) and the Paul Scherrer Institut (PSI) are therefore exploring spin waves or so-called magnons – a promising alternative for transporting information in more compact microchips. Cooperating with international partners, they have successfully generated and controlled extremely short-wavelength spin waves. The physicists achieved this feat by harnessing a natural magnetic phenomenon, as they explain in the journal Nature Nanotechnology.
Basic course in Electrochemistry (Prof. Dr. Petr Novák, ETHZ)
The basic course in Electrochemistry (given in German) will start in the room HPT C 103 (ETH Campus Hönggerberg) on Monday, September 23, 2019 at 08:45. For further information, please contact PD Dr. Lorenz Gubler, E-mail: Lorenz.Gubler@psi.ch. Download the slides of the lectures here (password-protected): Vorlesung Elektrochemie.
Computational Fluid Dynamics Group
The Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) group conducts research in application and development of numerical simulation techniques pertinent to safety of nuclear reactor simulations. The group’s portfolio covers the methods at different scales, ranging from entire systems modeled by the system code RELAP, through containment analysis with GOTHIC, and computational fluid dynamics method applied to components, down to molecular dynamic simulations.
