Institute Thursday SeminarFriday, 10 October 2025 12:29 |
The rapid increase in civilization-related diseases - such as diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular and musculoskeletal disorders or cancer - has created an urgent demand for new strategies in tissue engineering and organ replacement. During the next Unipress Thursday Seminar, dr inż. Ewa Kijeńska-Gawrońska from the Centre for Advanced Materials and Technologies CEZAMAT, Warsaw University of Technology, will introduce the general concept and progress in biomaterials fabrication and tissue engineering, highlighting the potential applications of electrospinning, 3D printing, and stem cells in modern therapies, including those in human and veterinary medicine. The talk tile is „Biomaterials for Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine”. Join us live in the Institute of High Pressure Physics, al. Prymasa Tysiąclecia 98, Warsaw, seminar room on II floor, or online via Zoom platform on Thursday, October 30, 2025 at 3:00 pm. To get the link to Zoom meeting, please contact us at dyrekcja@unipress.waw.pl Abstract of the talk is here.
GaN4AP project final press releaseWednesday, 08 October 2025 10:44 |
We are happy to share the press release summarizing the GaN4AP project that focused on harnessing the unique properties of GaN to create more efficient, reliable, and high-performance power systems. GaN for Advanced Power Applications (GaN4AP) involved 36 project partners: private companies, universities, and public research organizations from 6 European countries. The Institute of High Pressure Physics PAS contributed to the developemnt of high-quality bulk GaN substrates, key-enabling element of the novel architecture vertical power devices. The European project GaN4AP (Gallium Nitride for Advanced Power Applications) was launched in June 2021 as part of the EU’s H2020-ECSEL-2020-1-IA initiative. It was funded by the Chips JU Public-Private Partnership and by the National Authorities and it has significantly advanced the field of power conversion systems, marking a key milestone in the global energy transition.

Polish-German Weave-UNISONO project for the research on iron-based superconducting thin filmsWednesday, 22 October 2025 10:54 |
Scientists from the Institute of High Pressure Physics Polish Academy of Sciences (IHPP PAS) and the Karlsruhe Institute for Technology (KIT) have received a Weave-UNISONO grant for research on iron-based superconductors (FBS). The results of the project call have been just announced by National Science Center. The Polish team, led by Dr. hab. Shiv Jee Singh from IHPP PAS, and the German team, led by Dr. Jens Hänisch from KIT, will combine their knowledge and skills to develop a unique method for the fabrication of new and improved properties FBS layers by the synergy of conventional thin-film deposition techniques with high-pressure techniques. FBS superconductors bridge the gap between high-temperature copper-based superconductors and classic low-temperature superconductors. Determining phase diagrams and understanding the correlation between fabrication conditions and properties is crucial for fundamental research, as well as for harnessing the potential of these materials in practical applications. The project details are summarized in the abstract. More information about the Weave-UNISONO competition can be found at the NCN website link. The Weave-UNISONO competition is open on an ongoing basis. Funding is available for collaborations with partners from Austria, the Czech Republic, Slovenia, Switzerland, Germany, Luxembourg, and Belgium-Flanders.
IHPP PAS received a prestigious FNP grant IRAThursday, 09 October 2025 22:36 |
The Foundation for Polish Science (FNP) has awarded the Institute of High Pressure Physics PAS funding to develop the Centre for Physics and Technology of Nitride Semiconductors “GaN-Unipress.” The International Research Agendas Programme (IRAP FENG) focuses on industrial research and experimental development (basic research is not funded). Leadership and structure The project encompasses four research areas, forming a complete value chain – from material to device and design algorithms: • WP1: Ammonothermal GaN crystal growth and high-quality substrates (targeting 4-inch GaN). Key partnerships Impact Find out more about the IRA Programme and Call 2/2025 results.
X Winter Workshop Kalatówki 2026Wednesday, 08 October 2025 10:23 |
We are pleased to announce the 10th Winter Workshop Kalatówki - a unique scientific meeting dedicated to the physics and technology of group-III nitride semiconductors, including InGaN-based laser diodes, LEDs, quantum emitters, and novel optoelectronic devices. It organized on March 15-20, 2026. The workshop continues the long-standing tradition of informal and inspiring discussions held in the beautiful scenery of the Tatra Mountains. Researchers are invited to share their latest results, exchange ideas, and strengthen collaborations in a relaxed atmosphere of the Kalatówki mountain lodge. As in the previous Workshop editions, attendance is by invitation only. Topics include:
