📝 Per si t'ho vas perdre.... Un equip europeu de científics liderat per l’ICFO (Barcelona) ha publicat a Science un estudi on han aconseguit una nova fita per a la producció sostenible d'hidrogen verd mitjançant l’electròlisi de l'aigua. Han dissenyat un nou catalitzador que aprofita propietats de l'aigua fins ara inexplorades i han aconseguit, per primera vegada, una alternativa a les matèries primeres crítiques per a l'electròlisi de l'aigua en condicions industrials rellevants! Aquest descobriment ha estat aconseguit pels investigadors de l'ICFO Dr. Ranit Ram, Dr. Lu Xia, Dr. Anku Guha, Dr. Viktoria Golovanova, Dr. Marinos Dimitropoulos, Aparna M. Das and Adrián Pinilla-Sánchez, liderat pel Prof. a l'ICFO Dr. F. Pelayo García de Arquer; e inclou important col·laboracions amb investigadors de l' ICIQ, de l'Institut Català de Nanociència i Nanotecnologia (ICN2), del French National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS), de l Diamond Light Source, i de l'Institute of Advanced Materials (INAM).

After three and a half years, the #LESGO_EU team has demonstrated that graphene-based materials, such as graphene oxide, can securely store hydrogen using an energy-efficient loading process based on a flow cell electrolyzer and recover it by thermal, photon-induced and fuel-cell means. Thanks to all partners and collaborators for the success!

Congratulations to New ICFO PhD Graduate! We congratulate Dr. Sebastian Hägele who defended his thesis yesterday in ICFO’s Auditorium. Dr Hägele obtained his MSc in Applied Photonics at Aalen University (DE) before joining the Optoelectronics research group led by ICREA profeessor at ICFO Dr. Valerio Pruneri as a PhD student. His thesis, entitled “Compact Phase Imaging Platform and its Application to Material Science and Manufacturing,” was supervised by ICREA Prof. Dr. Valerio Pruneri and Dr. Roland Alfonso Terborg. Congratulations Sebastian!!! 👏 ICFO News: 👉

📝 Going beyond energy: ground-state properties unlocked in a certifiable and scalable way A team of researchers theoretically obtain for the first time, certifiable bounds on many-body ground-state properties beyond the energy with competitive performance. The resulting method is general and scalable. The article, published in the journal Physical Review X, is a team effort led by Dr Jie Wang from the Chinese Academy of Sciences in collaboration with ICFO researchers Dr Jacopo Surace - now at Perimeter Institute - and ICREA Prof. Antonio Acín, together with ICFOnian Marc-Olivier Renou from Inria and colleagues from the Institut Néel CNRS, the Laboratoire Kastler Brossel - LKB, the KU Leuven, the Institut Polytechnique de Paris and LAAS-CNRS.

"El mundo de la física está muy masculinizado. Las reglas están hechas por los hombres, la manera de trabajar, la manera de interactuar está muy masculinizada y es un mundo hostil para las mujeres". Así explicaba Maria Garcia-Parajo, profesora de investigación ICREA deICFO de Castelldefels su visión sobre el mundo de la física en la actualidad en su entrevista para el ciclo Arrojando Luz: Ciencia y Tecnología Visión Mujer Parajo aborda además, las acciones que se están llevando a cabo para conseguir un mundo más igualitario entre hombres y mujeres. #MujeresyCiencia #STEM
