Kolumne: Hat OpenAIs ChatGPT aus den KI-Dialogen von Mathematikern Ideen geklaut? Fest steht: Rohdaten aus Forschungslaboren werden für das Training der Super-KIs von morgen dringend gebraucht. China hat längst begonnen, seine Forschung teilweise abzuschotten - ein großer Fehler.

We're hiring a PhD student in Marburg 🔬☀️ Topic: predictive #ageing of #perovskitePV. Nobody can yet predict how long they last, and that is the challenge standing between this technology and your roof. Deadline 13 Sept. 👉 uni-marburg.de/k7ffBi More below 🧵

I’m a climate scientist. Let me fix this headline. “Nearly a century ago, scientists showed that burning fossil fuels warms the planet. Today, we know human emissions account for over 100% of the warming. Yet dark money and disinformation still work to keep Americans addicted to fossil fuels.”

Forbes@forbes.com · 4mo ago

Scientists have reached a consensus that human behavior is a big driver of climate change—but Americans aren't buying it.

Hybrid lead halide perovskites often behave weird. One of the reasons for that is that typical perovskite thin films contain a whole zoo of microscopic structures that affect electronic and ionic charge transport. (1/5)

I didn't know there was a competition for trny QR codes... We created this a while ago using a focused ion beam, imaged with an atomic force microscope

A team headed up at TU Wien has set the Guinness World Record for creating the world’s smallest QR code, which is so tiny it can only be read out using an electron microscope. 🧪⚛️ physicsworld.com/a/worlds-sma...

This iridescent, dendritic (from the Greek word dendron, meaning tree) #perovskite likely formed from volcanic gases released from a volcanic vent, or fumarole. This crystal is from the Eifel Mountains, Germany. Perovskite can be beautiful! More on dendritic crystals in the comment. #MinCup25 ⚒️

I learned today that I was not the first Prof. Dr. Stefan Weber at @unimainz.bsky.social: Dr. theol. Stephan Weber was a catholic theologist who acted as professor from 1607-1618 and even became rector of Mainz University in 1615. Another Doppelgänger for my list: weber-nano.com/doppelgaenger/

💥 We have 3 positions open in my lab in Basel, Switzerland🇨🇭: #nanopores #smFRET #biomolecular #dynamics #singleMolecules We’re looking for talented & ambitious new colleagues enthusiastic about biomolecular dynamics & single-molecule tech. Please share broadly, thank you!🤝 schmid.chemie.unibas.ch

We mourn the passing of Prof. Hans-Joachim Queisser (1931–2025), one of the founding directors of our institute. A pioneer of semiconductor physics and co-creator of the Shockley–Queisser limit, his vision shaped generations. We will remember him with deep gratitude. www.fkf.mpg.de/8744972/2025...

90 years soon… Ed Hawkins: ”In April 1938, Guy Callendar published his seminal paper showing that Earth’s land areas had warmed over the previous 50 years. He also suggested that man-made CO₂ emissions had caused around half of the observed warming.” rmets.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1...

The volume of mining and material use with EVs and renewables is massively in favor of clean energy, mainly because you can reuse batteries for decades and then recycle them. Oil, gas, and gas must be constantly moved.

Congrats, Dr. Weiwei Zuo! 🎉 Weiwei defended his thesis on perovskite thin-film crystallization for solar cells! See also here: pubs.rsc.org/en/content/a... He persisted brilliantly during the pandemic and a move from Darmstadt. Congrats Mr. Glovebox @salibalab.bsky.social @unistuttgart.bsky.social!
