nanoGUNE has hosted the 1st nanoGUNE PhD Workshop. This event has taken place to celebrate the 7th anniversary of the center´s opening data.

Researchers of the Nanodevices group, in collaboration with groups from the CFM and DIPC, both institutions also located in Donostia-San Sebastián, have discovered a new magnetoresistance effect occurring in materials with strong spin-orbit coupling. This new effect has been recently reported in the prestigious journal Physical Review Letters and featured as an Editor’s Suggestion.

CIC nanoGUNE eta Donostia International Physics Center (DIPC) ikerketa-zentroek, zeinak nanozientzian eta materialen zientzian baitaude espezializatuta, nanofikziozko lehen komiki partaidetzazkoa sortzea, egitea eta hedatzea proposatzen dute, 2016an, nanoKOMIK proiektuaren bidez.

NanoGUNEko Nanoingenieritza Taldeak, Andreas Seifert doktorea eta Ikerbasque ikertzailea buru duela, oinarrizko nanozientziaren eta ingeniaritza aplikatuaren arteko jakintza-arloak ikertzen ditu, bereziki mikrosistema biomedikoen arloa. Taldearen helburua da zientzia fisikoen eta aplikazio industrialen zein klinikoen arteko zubiak eraikitzea nanoteknologia erabiliz, mikrosistema mediko eta gailu mesoskopiko berriei balio erantsia emateko.

An international team led by Miguel M. Ugeda (CIC nanoGUNE) and Michael F. Crommie (UC. Berkeley (USA)) has demonstrated the coexistence of superconductivity and charge density wave (CDW) order in a single layer of NbSe₂, a model transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) metal. The demonstration that a single layer of NbSe₂ is a true 2D superconductor is a breakthrough in the field of 2D materials. Very few 2D superconductors exist in nature, and single-layer NbSe₂ is the first among them that remains a superconductor in its isolated, 2D form without the need of a special substrate. Furthermore, CDW order - spatial modulation of both the electron density and the atomic lattice (see figure below) – has been revealed to be a genuine 2D electronic phenomenon in NbSe₂. This work has been recently reported in Nature Physics.

In an article published and featured as an Editors’ suggestion in Physical Review Letters last week (PRL 115, 187403 (2015)), researchers from the Nanomagnetism group at nanoGUNE in collaboration with a team from the University of Cantabria and the University of Hamburg have reported on a massive increase of magneto-optical effects near the edges of nano-scale disks, where enhancements of over 1000% can be produced.

An interview with Dr. Andreas Berger, nanoGUNE´s research director, has been published on JPhys+, the physics blog from IOP Publishing in the UK. The interview is part of a series of interviews that JPhys+ has conducted during this year with editors of the Journal of Physics Series, and revolves around the research work done by the editors themselves as well as science in general.

Prospero Biosciences enpresak teknologia berritzaile bat garatuko du, masa-espektrometriaren industrian aplikazio-eremu berri bat irekitzeko gai dena. Besteak beste, markatzaile biologikoen ikerketan aurrerapauso esanguratsuak emateko aukera emango du.

The 5th edition of Nanomercosur is taking place from 6 to 8 October in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and nanoGUNE and its spin-off companies will be represented in the Brokerage event and the nanoBasque space of the exhibition area.
