The PhD researcher Isabel Guerrero Troyano, from the Inorganic Materials and Catalysis (LMI) Group at ICMAB-CSIC, will defend her PhD thesis on Friday, 11 March 2022 at 11 am at Universitat de Girona.
ICMAB Researcher Xavier Torrelles has collaborated in the design process of the new beamline installation.
ALBA Synchrotron, a 3rd generation synchrotron light facility that allows for the visualization of the atomic structure of matter as well as the study of its properties, will open its newest beamline, 3Sbar, by 2026:
"Each new beamline opens new windows in understanding the complexity of the world around us. With 3Sbar, ALBA aims to be at the fore-front of catalysis science, building a unique scientific instrument with strong capabilities for preserving our environment", says Caterina Biscari, director of the ALBA Synchrotron.

This year we asked to all #ICMABers to explain us some curiosities and facts about women in science. Here is the list of what we gathered.
The NANOMOL Research Unit is looking for a postdoc researcher to design and synthesize stable organic free radicals (SOFR) to prepare robust hybrid materials by their assembly onto conducting surfaces or nanoparticles.
The ICMAB Superconducting Materials and Large Scale Nanostructures (SUMAN) group is implementing an experimental platform at the NCD-SWEET beamline at ALBA Synchrotron to study the in situ growth of low-cost and ultrafast superconducting tapes.
ICMAB Director joins a panel on the importance of materials in Deep Tech in the context of the Mobile World Congress 2022 at the 4YFN #FrontierTech track.

High-throughput screening: Less than 25 mg of the donor and acceptor materials are used to make over 648 devices in a combinatorial screening method that investigates processing parameters for blade-coated polymer:polymer photovoltaics. Representing power conversion efficiency in the Hansen solubility space may be the key for easily selecting solvent systems that optimize performance.
The position is supported by the FOxME project from the Spanish National Plan for Research and involves close interaction with different experimental groups both at ICMAB and at the neighbor Catalan Institute of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology (ICN2).
We would like to invite you to our next ICMAB Invited Seminar by Guillermo Pedro Acuna, from the University of Fribourg.

The ferroelectric phase of HfO2 is generally stabilized in polycrystalline films, which typically exhibit the highest polarization when deposited using low oxidizing conditions. In contrast, epitaxial films grown by pulsed laser deposition show low or suppressed polarization if a low oxygen pressure is used. Epitaxial films are essential to better understand physical properties, and obtaining films that have intrinsic polarization is of great importance. In order to advance towards this objective, we have carried out a systematic study of the epitaxial growth of Hf0.5Zr0.5O2 combining inert Ar gas with oxidizing O2 gas.
Direct brain administration through the carotid artery of nanomaterials carrying drugs that boost tissue recovery could be an effective method to reduce the undesirable effects in other organs and improve the arrival of the drug into the brain.
