• Using ammonia for sustainable iron- and steelmaking
  When it comes to sustainability and green steel, everybody talks about hydrogen. But current means of storing and transporting hydrogen request high pressures and low temperatures, which are both e...
• Towards defect engineering: identifying universal structures on the atomic scale
  How will materials behave under certain conditions? And how to make materials more robust? These two questions are crucial to design advanced materials for structural and functional components and ...

• How hydrogen behaves in aluminium alloys
  Due to its low density, high strength, and abundance, aluminium and its alloys are widely used for example in constructions, consumer electronics and for vehicles including cars, ships, trains and ...

• Finding the key in understanding the plastic deformation of metals
  Metals are one of the most important materials in our civilization due to their excellent strength and formability. The possibility to permanently deform and shape metals without breaking, makes th...

• Breakthrough in material science: analysing frozen water atom by atom
  How to analyse ice down to its atomic scale? And how to analyse objects embedded in ice without melting it? An international team of material scientists mainly from the Max-Planck-Institut für Eise...
• How interstitial ordering affects high-strength steels
  The performance of materials is strongly influenced by their alloying elements: Adding elements beyond the basic composition of the alloy can strongly influence the properties and performance of it...

• The role of Sodium for the enhancement of solar cells
  Green energy gained by photovoltaic amounts ca. 6% of Germany's gross power production. The most common solar cells currently used are made out of silicon. So-called CIGS, solar cells out of copper...
