Scientists discuss latest developments in molecular electronics at DFG project meeting on campus |
From June 25 till June 27, 2007, Jacobs University hosts the mid-term meeting of the research project “Quantum Transport at the Molecular Scale” funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG). Over 65 scientist from Germany, Ireland, Italy, and Sweden, among them Ulrich Kleinekathöfer, Professor of Theoretical Physics at Jacobs University, will discuss their latest findings in molecular dynamics and the research project’s perspectives.

The DFG funded priority program (DFG-Schwerpunktprogramm) is initially scheduled for two years and can be prolonged to a maximum six years. The general goal of the program is to advance the fundamental research activity in the field of molecular electronics by combining different theoretical approaches, experimental techniques and to develop a full physical picture of molecular-scale charge transport. Therefore scientists of numerous high ranking research institutions, among them Jacobs University, currently conduct 21 surveys locally with the molecular electronics focus, which are coordinated by the physicists Prof. Thomas Frauenheim (University Bremen), Prof. Klaus Richter (University Regensburg) and Prof. Heiko Weber (University Erlangen).
