Bernd Wicklein, ICMM-CSIC, participates in a study that has combined conductive materials with a biopolymer present in seaweed to generate renewable energy that can be applied in nanodevices.

The H2umidity technology incorporates advanced materials to develop an electrolyzer that improves energy efficiency and reduces the costs of hydrogen production.

The project will revolutionize the spatial modulation of light, applicable in image projection and laser surgery. It will create ultrathin, flexible, and quasi-transparent devices that can be integrated into curved surfaces, such as smart lenses, or compact devices.

Manuel Vazquez Villalabeitia and David Navas Otero directed his work on the Influence of Layer Thickness on Exchange Coupled Ferromagnetic Bilayers separated by a Non-Magnetic Spacer

His thesis, entitled 'Free-standing Transition Metal Oxide Thin Films: From Properties to Application' is about "very thin materials", he explains to a non-scientific audience.

The ICMM-CSIC participates in the MIT-Spain program, through which the institute sends its best students to learn the innovative techniques of leading research centers.

The young researcher, whose thesis was supervised by José Antonio Alonso along with Norbert Nemes and Federico Serrano, has already received two awards for this work.

The Materials Science Institute of Madrid (ICMM-CSIC) has achieved a cheap formula to stabilize the optical spectrum or fluctuating on demand.

The Materials Science Institute of Madrid (ICMM-CSIC) has successfully synthesized metallic and conductive nanoparticles of nickel and iron using a method that prevents their oxidation.

A 19-year-old Physics student and a 4th-year ESO student spent time at the center during June.
