NanoLund researchers in collaboration with researchers from Uppsala University and University of Copenhagen have designed an iron complex which has shown to be luminescent and to have charge-transfer capabilities. This opens up for the possibility of replacing the expensive and rare metals such as ruthenium, osmium and iridium with iron in metal complexes of photocatalysts.Read the article Lumines

A recent article in Nature Nanotechnology by NanoLund researchers show that a quantum dot-based heat engine can convert heat into work with an efficiency similar to that of similar machines with moving parts. As quantum dot-based engine has no moving parts it may be useful in applications such as nanotechnology and remote sensing. To Chemistry World, Heiner Linke explains: We have shown that we ca

NanoLund researcher Jesper Wallentin has been granted an ERC starting grant. His project will investigate whether semiconductor nanowires can be used as high resolution X-ray detectors. Wallentins group have some initial results that show that they can get a measurable electric current from single nanowires that are exposed to X-rays. Long term, the hope is that nanostructured X-ray detectors coul

Eva Nordmark was 62 when she received her Alzheimer’s diagnosis. But rather than life ending, it gave her the chance to reclaim parts of her life that she had not previously had time for. It is a sunny autumn day at the Humlamaden rehab centre outside Veberöd, and the stable is full of life and activity. The 32-year-old Shetland pony Brossan is sauntering around the yard doing whatever takes his f
