And it is official: Today I have been appointed Assistant Professor for Experimental Semiconductor Physics at TU Chemnitz!! What an exciting day. Looking forward to doing great science with lots of new colleagues at the Faculty of Natural Sciences and beyond.

Having taken this step, I have to thank so many friends, colleagues, teachers, and mentors that supported me over the years - especially those great co-workers of the StranksLab, P&OE, and i-MEET groups - thank you all so very much!

Congratulations Simon! We are sure it will be a success 🙌

We are very proud of Lijun! He did a great job! 😊

Fantastic news for Provincie Groningen, Netherlands and Europe! Thanks to the #NationaalGroiefonds @MinisterieEZK - More solar cells to save the planet! MCPV to build 3 GW solar cell, module factory in Netherlands pv-magazine.com/2023/07/17/mcp…

And of corse great for University of Groningen and the faculty of science and engineering, the company will be in Veendam! Go MCPV 💪

The last paper from my research in the P&OE group is now online! Thanks Maria Antonietta Loi, the group and collaborators for all the fun times and great science! 👨‍🎓 pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Great piece of work of our Karolina 👏👏👏👏

A fantastic collaboration with VisEra technologies and Lai-Hung! 💪

Thank you Margherita Taddei for the invitation Ginger Lab Robert Westbrook and all Clean Energy Institute members for the interesting scientific discussions and nice hospitality! I really enjoy the visit! 👋

Obviously the way how grants are evaluated is not working, in particular with the increasing pressure of numbers on the system. An other question is if we are really trained to recognise ground breaking ideas! Are we all up to the task? Something to reflect about 🧠

I cannot be more excited with the Nobel promise in chemistry this year!!!!! Quantum dots and nano technology. I still remember meeting Moungi in his office and lecturing me on how to be successful. Congrats to Moungi, Brus and Ekimov and all my colleagues that pioneer the field!

Yes !!! QDs are fantastic! 🍾🍾🍾Loredana Protesescu

The Fall APL Editor's Meeting just wrapped up! We shared best practices and discussed new ways to best serve our authors and readers. Exciting things to come. The highlight was seeing our colleagues in person - what a GREAT team!

We change labs activity for an afternoon! Great cooking guys😍P&OE

After weeks dismounting our precious and beloved equipment, today we made it to the Feringa bulging. The optical tables made an elegant exit from the old building and a very grand entrance in the new one! 😉

Very excited about this project and I am looking forward to working with ⁦Maria Antonietta Loi⁩ and our collaborators to develop infrared sensors using quantum dots as active materials! linkedin.com/posts/faculty-…

A new image sensor for 📱 to be used for health monitoring, night vision and assisted autonomous driving: Maria Antonietta Loi (Maria Antonietta Loi / Science LinX-Faculty of Science and Engineering-UG) and Loredana Loredana Protesescu receive a big NWO Nieuws grant to make it happen 👏 Read more 👇 rug.nl/fse/news/nwo-f…
