Stable energy supply using artificial intelligence: Paderborn’s researchers and companies shine a spotlight on operation and control strategies for microgrids

International team of researchers publishes review in Nature Reviews Physics Due to their unique properties, 2D materials, which consist of a single layer of atoms, are increasingly being used in optoelectronic devices, as quantum light sources and in integrated circuits. Research into the quantum technologies enabled by 2D materials has been advancing rapidly since 2015, with further potential for yet further advances. An international team of…

In 2018, the German Research Foundation (DFG) established a large-scale Priority Programme co-ordinated by Paderborn University and entitled ‘Electronic-Photonic Integrated Systems for Ultrafast Signal Processing’.

The German Research Foundation (DFG) is funding a joint project being carried out by Paderborn University, the University of Rostock and Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz that plans to leverage sunlight to make chemical reactions more environmentally friendly.

How can disadvantaged young people more successfully access working life after leaving school? Researchers from the University of Jena and Paderborn University are exploring this issue in their new research project ‘SeiP: Practicing self-promotion – approaches to a self-determined, multimodal competence assessment for young people with disadvantages/disabilities’.

Researchers from Paderborn University publish findings in ‘Optica’ Researchers at Paderborn University have demonstrated that ‘spontaneous parametric down-conversion’ – a phenomenon from the field of quantum photonics – is compatible with cryogenic, i.e. extremely cold, operating conditions required for superconducting detectors. Their findings are important for, among other things, applications of quantum optics in integration platforms, e.g.…

New approaches to teacher training in NRW through research project “InDigO”

Paderborn University physicist Professor Klaus Jöns has been awarded an ‘ERC Starting Grant’ from the European Research Council (ERC) – one of the most prestigious awards in the field of science in Europe.

An international team of leading scientists, headed up by Paderborn physicist Professor Klaus Jöns, has compiled a comprehensive overview of the potential, global outlook, background and frontiers of integrated photonics.
