Mai 2022 - BFM - TUM Campus Straubing

Congratulations to Marco for his presitigious Master Thesis Award!!!

Marco won the ‘Wissenschaftspreis Straubing 2022’. This price is awarded to students and scientists working at the Competence Center for Renewable Resources and have drawn attention to themselves through special achievements and outstanding dissertation or master’s thesis. Marco was awarded for his master’s thesis focused on the implementation of new fluorescent proteins and biopolymers in hybrid LEDs under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Rubén D. Costa at the Chair of Biogenic Functional Materials (TUM Campus Straubing).

We are on the TV!!

Rubén had the opportunity to give a small insight into our research to a wide audience. He was featured in the show „alles wissen“ on hr-fernsehen.

Here you can find the link to view his part in the show:

We are on the news!!

It is a great honor that our recent publication in Adv. Mater. has been highlighted by several social media!
Below you can find a nice description on our recent on using multivarite analysis to design first class blue and white copper(I) complexes for ionic based thin film lighting devices.
Enjoy the read…more is coming soon.

Nice meeting with old and future collaborators

Rubén hold a lecture on the strategies towards sustainable thin-film lighting systems in the SFB-Kolloquium organized by the U. Heidelberg.

Fruitful scientific discussions with old collaborators (Prof. Kivala and Mastalerz) and new collaborations on going.

Special thanks to Milan for organizing this excellent time!!

Helle, stabile und leicht zu recycelnde Beleuchtung

Eine kostengünstige und einfach herzustellende Beleuchtungstechnik kann mit lichtemittierenden elektrochemischen Zellen erfolgen. Bei solchen Zellen handelt es sich um elektronische und ionische Dünnschichtbauteile, die nach Anlegen einer niedrigen Spannung Licht erzeugen. Forschende haben jetzt mit Hilfe einer umfangreichen Datenanalyse aus Kupfer-Komplexen erstklassige elektrochemische Zellen geschaffen, die blaues und weißes Licht emittieren.
