Lara, welcome back!
We are excited to host Lara for a master thesis, starting today! The plans are ambitious, good luck for your experiments, Lara!
Maksym delivers two talks and a poster at ECIS2024
Over 700 scientists gathered for the annual ECIS2024 conference, hosted by the European Colloid & Interface Society. An amazing experience - new friends, sunny Copenhagen, and a wealth of new ideas in colloidal science!
Hanglin publishes his Master Thesis in Advanced Electronic Materials
Phase change memory devices are high-performance but costly to fabricate. Our paper explores drop-on-demand inkjet printing as a cost-effective alternative. We provide a guide to optimal printing parameters, examine structural properties, and demonstrate non-volatile, cyclable printed phase change memory devices.
Paper on Cu-Ge-Te nanoparticles in Chemistry of Materials
Our amide-promoted synthesis is amazingly universal! We used it to develop a full-fledged approach for Cu-Ge-Te nanoparticles. Various phases, unconventional phase-change properties, in-situ crystallization, and more in our recent Chemistry of Materials paper
Dhananjey defends his PhD thesis
We are extremely happy to have graduated Dhananjey from the CMD lab. Congratulations, Dr. Dhananjeya Kumaar! Wishing you immense success in applying your natural talents and the skills honed during your studies. Thank you for being a pioneer in everything! What a journey was it!
Warm welcome to Lara Perren
We welcome Lara to the CMD family! Lara reinforces the direction of intermetallic nanocrystals, working with low-melting bimetallic compositions and their phase-change properties.
Simon made it to Nature Communications
We are extremely happy to have published our intuitive model for amorphous tellurides materials! It explains structural dynamics, crystallization mechanism, ideal glass, and nanoscale effects in phase-change memory tellurides
After more than 1,000 projects, ETH Zurich is handing over the lead for Asia
ETH Zurich has provided its final report to the State Secretariat for Education, Research and Innovation (SERI) on the “Leading House Asia” mandate. After more than 20 years and around 1,000 funded projects, the University has declined to apply for a new mandate period. The University of Zurich will take on the future role of Leading House for research cooperation with Asia.
Small steps on the road to peace
Trust takes years to build and seconds to break – not least when it comes to international relations. ETH researchers investigate what it takes to build confidence on the global stage.
Towering feat in an alpine village
ETH Zurich has fabricated the world’s tallest 3D-printed structure. With the construction of the White Tower in Mulegns, researchers hope to bring innovative technologies to commercial maturity.
Trustworthy AI – reliable and predictable
Trust in AI models is about more than just technical performance – ethical principles and human values are equally important.
AI in a mini-lab or putting precision to the test
New miniature laboratories are ensuring that artificial intelligence (AI) doesn’t make mistakes. They provide a controlled test environment where algorithms and AI models can be checked before being put to work under real-life conditions. The aim is for AI to work reliably.
