The aim of the project is to calculate the physical properties of the exciton condensate under various conditions, identify those with application potential, and propose materials where they can be realized.
HiLASE turns into technologically advanced Centre of Excellence, aimed at serving a broad scientific and industrial laser user community It will drive new laser-based applications in industry, such as advanced material treatments and energy production.
This new technology is behind memory applications such as computer hard disks.
Researchers from the Institute of Physics of the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic, in collaboration with researchers from Barcelona, Berkeley, and Halle have demonstrated an experimental spin-based microelectronic device using an antiferromagnetic semiconductor compound Sr2IrO4.
Currently, the Academy of Europe has about 3000 members from the physical sciences and technology, biological sciences and medicine, mathematics, humanities, social and cognitive sciences, economics and the law. Besides Tomas Jungwirth, Czech Republic has two other members of this section (Jiří Bičák a Pavel Exner).
Efficient spin-charge and charge-spin converters are needed for future technologies allowing to integrate the so far isolated worlds of semiconductor and magnetic devices.
The unique status of the FUNBIO centre in a present academic sphere lays not only in the topmost technical equipment but mainly in very specific, useful and nowadays frequently required physical view on biomaterials.
A book Essentials of Econophysics Modelling from Dr František Slanina is a course in methods and models rooted in physics and used in modelling economic and social phenomena. It covers the discipline of econophysics, which creates an interface between physics and economics.
In order to shake a magnet electrically without involving an electro-magnet or another permanent magnet, one has to step out of the realm of classical physics and enter the relativistic quantum mechanics. Researchers from the Institute of Physics, in collaboration with researchers from Cambridge, Nottingham, and Mainz, have discovered a new physical phenomenon that allows manipulating the state of a magnet by electric fields.
