When gathering evidence for criminal cases, the field of digital forensics is becoming increasingly important. This presents frequent challenges to the authorities including collecting and analysing unimaginable volumes of data.
The origin of the granular capillary effect – the rise of sand or other granules in a tube – was a long-standing mystery. Further research may open up new ways to move materials.
The EU is granting FAU chemist Andreas Hirsch €2.49 million to conduct research into black phosphorus on the molecular level. The holder of the Chair of Organic Chemistry II aims to develop new areas for its application, for instance in the fields of electrical energy storage and solar cells.
Researchers’ reputations are often measured by how often their publications are cited. The CWTS Leiden Ranking shows that FAU researchers are among the most frequently cited.
FAU material scientists were granted funding for one of the world’s best X-ray microscopes and they could already help unravelling an open question in butterfly research with fascinating 3D analyses.
The ability to assemble electronic building blocks consisting of individual molecules is an important objective in nanotechnology. An interdisciplinary research group is now significantly closer to achieving this goal.
Erlangen-based researchers demonstrate for the first time that inflammation can be detected sooner with less stress for patients using an innovative laser technology.
Malignant melanoma is one of the most common and dangerous types of cancer. Researchers at FAU investigated how and why brown pigmented moles turn into malignant melanoma using innovative robot technology.
Graphene is considered as one of the most promising new materials. However, the systematic insertion of chemically bound atoms and molecules to control its properties is still a major challenge.
