Congratulations to Sushmita Chandra, Xialong Feng und Ning Mao, who have all been awarded Humboldt Postdoctoral Research Fellowships in the Topological Quantum Chemistry department!
Congratulations to Marisel Di Pietro Martínez and Luke Turnbull, who have both been awarded Humboldt Postdoctoral Research Fellowships in the Spin3D group!
Congratulations to Eteri Svanidze, who was awarded the 7th ERES Junior award from the European Rare Earth and Actinide Society (ERES) for “her talented contributions to the solid-state chemistry and physics of f-elements“. The award was presented at ICFE-11, which was held in Strasbourg (France) last August.
The hardness of a material normally is set by the strength of chemical bonds between electrons of neighbouring atoms, not by freely flowing conduction electrons. Now a team of scientists from MPI-CPfS, Germany, Japan, Korea and the United States has shown that current-carrying electrons can make the lattice much softer than usual in the material Sr…
The Institute of Low Temperature and Structural Research of the Polish Academy of Sciences in Wroclaw awards Prof. Juri Grin, director at the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Physics of Solids, an honorary professorship.
Prof. Claudia Felser, Director at the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Physics of Solids, has been named to the prestigious "Hall of Fame of German Research” of the German “manager magazin”. She receives this honor for her pioneering contributions to the advancement of research in quantum chemical topology.
With great enthusiasm, we had the opportunity to present our research work to schoolchildren as part of the Schüler Campus 2023 and to interested citizens as part of the Science Café.
Claire Donnelly has been awarded a Starting Grant from the European Research Council (ERC). She is the Lise Meitner Group Leader of Spin3D at the MPI CPfS and will use the grant to explore the effects of three dimensionality on quantum nanomaterials.
