What is FRET? Have you ever wondered how tiny molecules can transfer energy to each other? Förster Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET), a concept first introduced by Theodor Förster in 1948, offers a fascinating mechanism for energy transfer between closely spaced molecules. This non-radiative process, mediated by dipole-dipole interactions, holds a pivotal role in various scientific disciplines, underscoring its broad and significant applications. To learn more about FRET, check out our recent blog in the Spectral School series. https://ow.ly/YCiy50ROtrn

We recently caught up with Future Energy Exports CRC PhD scholar to hear about his research trip to Boulder Colorado. Mark said "recently I was lucky enough to attend the 22nd Symposium on Thermophysical Properties in Boulder. I presented some of my recent research which is supported by FEnEx CRC, focussing on measuring the freeze-out of solids relevant to the hydrogen liquefaction process. At liquid hydrogen temperatures, there is a significant disagreement about where these solids can form (when comparing the predictions of thermodynamic models to the existing literature data). Our recent work seems to suggest that the predictions of the model are accurate, potentially indicating some issues with this low-temperature data. The conference was a great opportunity to get feedback on this initial conclusion and some new ideas for future directions. Alongside the conference, it was also great to catch up with a recently completed FEnEx CRC PhD scholar, Catherine Sampson Ayers, for a hike in the mountains!"  Enabling researchers to network internationally as soon as possible is one way FEnEx CRC supports Australia's global connections.  #fenexcrc #phdlife #thermophysics #hydrogenliquefaction Eric May

Take a look at this recent Perspective by Diogo Alves Gálico, Claudia Manuela Santos Calado and Muralee Murugesu from University of Ottawa ✨ In this perspective, they provide an overview of the recent achievements in luminescent lanthanide-based molecular cluster-aggregates (MCAs) and illustrate why MCAs can be seen as the next generation of highly efficient optical materials.💡 Read it for free here💎: https://lnkd.in/eftXqGtQ

Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft e. V. (DPG) Spring Meeting in Greifswald just started, looking forward to an intense and inspiring week! For PhD students, this is often the first conference where they will give a talk, another important part are the daily poster sessions and the plenary and invited talks from senior researchers. We, from University of Stuttgart are here with a group of seven, learn from Christos Vagkidis about a novel interferometry diagnostics approach, from Ralph Sarkis about the interplay of particle and momentum transport in magnetically confined plasmas, from Nico Dumerat about the causal coupling between density and potential fluctuation during zonal flow events, from Marc Bresser on plasma based methods to synthesize hydrocarbons, from Katharina Wiegers about a plasma based technique to split up CO2 and then separate oxygen, from Stefan Merli about modeling plasma torches to convert CO2 into CO and O2, from myself about a new project dealing with Helicon heating of plasma Wakefield accelerators. Or just say hello for a coffee or a drink 🙂 #DPGHGW24

Today Joao Silvano defended his PhD on the use of Ultrasonic Spray Coating for Perovskite PV cells (reaching 16,2%) and monolithic CIGS-Perovskite PV cells approaching 20%. He paved the way for further research into understanding the structure-property relationship of these layers and tandem devices and improving efficiencies using Ultrasonic Spray Coating. imo-imomec / EnergyVille / Universiteit Hasselt - Faculteit Industriële Ingenieurswetenschappen / Hasselt University / #FunctionalMaterialsEngineering (FME) With Aleksandra Bojar, Francisco Molina-Lopez, Yinghuan Kuang, Hans-Gerd Boyen, laurence Lutsen, Gizem Birant, Bart Vermang and Ronald Thoelen
