Institute of Functional Nanosystems at the University of Ulm
Introducing the new Institute of Functional Nanosystems
The new Institute of Functional Nanosystems at the University of Ulm focuses on the application of materials and new developments in optoelectronics, including GaN-based electronics and optoelectronics, VCSELs and optical interconnects, and high-power semiconductor lasers. The application of materials to key societal issues such as environment & sustainability, energy (energy production, energy conversion & energy storage) and medicine & healthcare is an important part of the institute’s research. Additionally, effective collaboration and partnership is an important part of daily work, both in terms of encouraging international collaboration, but also encouraging increased collaboration between universities, government and industry.
