Welcome to a journey throughout the history of humanity’s relation to materials. The exhibition at Campus Norrköping Library explores how materials have shaped civilization through the ages – from early use of natural resources to contemporary materials research with a focus on sustainability.

Linköping University has a strong position in materials research. The Department of Physics, Chemistry and Biology (IFM) is world-leading in research in advanced semiconductor technology, organic solar cells and energy materials, biophysics and biochemistry, new multifunctional materials, ecology and ethology, among other fields. The Laboratory of Organic Electronics (LOE) is a vibrant, international and collaborative research environment where researchers design and synthesize functional organic materials and hybrid materials, model and characterize their properties and apply them in an array of areas including energy harvesting and storage, catalysis, printed electronics, photonics, bioelectronics and plant bioelectronics. 

The exhibition is from 25 September, 2026, to 25 February, 2027.
