16.07.21 – Although a very promising solution for capturing solar energy, perovskite solar cells contain lead, which is toxic to the environment and a serious health hazard. EPFL scientists have now found a very elegant and efficient solution by adding … Continue reading →
05.07.21 – Chemical engineers at EPFL have developed a machine-learning model that can predict a compound’s oxidation state, a property that is so essential that many chemists argue it must be included in the periodic table. Chemical elements make up … Continue reading →
02.07.21 – EPFL scientists have devised a new method that can speed up the real-time observation capabilities of cryo-electron microscopy. In 2017, Jacques Dubochet, Joachim Frank, and Richard Henderson won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for their contributions to cryo-electron … Continue reading →
01.07.21 – A collaboration between EPFL and UCSB has developed a long-anticipated breakthrough, and demonstrated CMOS technology – used for building microprocessors and memory chips – that allows wafer-scale manufacturing of chip-scale optical frequency combs. Optical frequency combs consist of … Continue reading →
07.01.21 – EPFL Associate Professor Lenka Zdeborová gives the prestigious 2021 Josiah Willard Gibbs Lecture, posing the question of which computational problems are actually tractable with computers, which are not, and what is the theory behind this? Lenka Zdeborová, who … Continue reading →
