Five researchers at LiU have each been awarded SEK 1 million per year for four years in research grants from a joint initiative by the Swedish Energy Agency and the Swedish Research Council in energy-oriented basic research.

A discovery on how to control spinning electrons paves the way for novel hybrid devices that could outperform existing semiconductor electronics. Researchers at LiU use a topological insulator, a fascinating matter with unique electrical properties.

Future quantum computers might use electron spin to process information. Researchers have now constructed a component in which information can be efficiently exchanged between electron spin and light – at room temperature and above.

Twenty-five researchers from seven research institutes have put their heads together to draw up rules for designing high-efficiency organic solar cells. The research, led by associate professor Feng Gao, have been published in Nature Materials.
