A laboratory creates a basic infrastructure for interdisciplinary biophysical workplace allowing to do comprehensive research in physics, chemistry, biology and medicine fields.
The new Centre of Excellence HiLASE located in Dolní Břežany incorporates advanced solid-state laser systems that are ideally suited to hi-tech industrial applications.
Chirality plays a key role in nature and can be demonstrated for example on the relationship of right and left hand, which are not identical in terms of symmetry. Scientists can now observe a chemical transformation of individual molecules on the silver surface and demonstrated chirality transfer during the reaction.
For the first time, scientists noted the success in proving that, at low temperatures, the localizes water molecules tend to align, exhibiting so-called incipient ferroelectricity.
How and why the localized deformation happens has always attracted the attention of mechanical engineers as well as theoreticians involved in modelling of material deformation.
A new microscopic method concerning the probe with the flexible terminal atom/molecule enables for the first time direct observation of the chemical structure of individual molecules.
An antiferromagnetic advantage is a speed by which information can be written in their memories. Plus the information stored by antiferromagnetic materials cannot be accidentally wiped even by large magnetic fields.
The Pierre Auger Observatory is the world’s leading science project for the exploration of cosmic rays. The Observatory has achieved excellent results helping scientists to better understand particles with energies more than a million times larger than the beam energy at the current world largest accelerator.
The research community is intensively searching for new materials, hopefully showing superconductivity under ambient conditions, which would solve many of the most pressing problems of the current era of information technology. For a target-oriented search of such materials, the electron properties of the basic constituents of Hund’s metals need to be understood in detail, and this requirement was lacking so far.
