Electrical and electromagnetic noise sources become more and more common as the number of advanced electronic equipment increases. Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) aims at measurement of unwanted emissions from electrical equipment.

ZnO with its excellent electro-mechanical coupling properties is being realized in our research on nanomechanics. Namely piezoelectricity based on ZnO nano-wires grown on different substrates is an active research area.

Do ordered polymer chains increase the conductivity of plastic? Newly developed are more conductive, but for completely different reasons – according to researchers from LiU and Stanford University, in an article in the highly ranked journal PNAS.

Researchers at LiU have developed a small device that both detects the initial signal of an epileptic attack and doses a substance that effectively stops it. All this takes place where the signal arises.

By introducing defects into the perfect surface of graphene on silicon carbide, researchers at LiU have increased the capacity of the material to store electrical charge. The finding stimulates ideas on how this ultrathin material might be used.

In Täppan Building at Campus Norrköping an unusual but fun research project is being carried out. A wireless network of sensors, developed as part of the Smart City project, is utilized to the wall of plants.

The application of nanostructures as electrochemical sensors is another challenging area of research within our activity in Physical electronics and nanotechnology group.

"Give us the problem and we’ll solve it." Professor Shaofang Gong and his research group reported the findings from the “Smart City with the Internet of Things” research project to a well-attended meeting.

We are mainly working on the growth and structural and optical characterization of metal oxide nanostructures and its composites.

With a microfabricated ion pump ions can be sent to nerve or muscle cells at the speed of the nervous system and with a precision of a single cell. “Now we can start to develop components that speak the body’s own language,” says Daniel Simon, LOE.
