IHPP PAS Seminar on Nitride Semiconductors![]() Dear Ladies and Gentlemen, We are pleased to invite you to the IHPP PAS Seminar on Nitride Semiconductors. The next presentation will be held in a hybrid mode – at the New Technologies seminar room, Al. Prymasa Tysiąclecia 98, and through Zoom platform (to get the link, please contact us at nitride_seminar@mail.unipress.waw.pl ). The next seminar is scheduled on Monday 06.02.2023 at 14:00. Speaker: dr Marcin Zając (IHPP PAS, NL-3) Title: Point defects in ammonothermal GaN Sincerely, Tadeusz Suski Publication in Progress in Material Science by authors from our Institute, X-PressMatter Laboratory![]() Explaining and describing previtreous dynamics is one of the challenges of the 21st century. So far, the proposed theories and relationships that scale viscosity or relaxation time on cooling have not been widely accepted for experimental verification. A broader and more comprahensive approach to these problems is presented by a team of researchers from our Institute, the X-PressMatter Laboratory: Aleksandra Drozd-Rzoska, Sylwester J. Rzoska and Szymon Starzonek. Their work "New scaling paradigm for dynamics in glass-forming systems", will soon be published in the prestigious journal Progress in Materials Science (IF=48.165) https://doi.org/10.1016/j.pmatsci.2023.101074
Prof. Sylwester J. Rzoska qualified for funding in NCN call![]() The National Science Center (NCN) has announced the results of OPUS 23 call for research projects. One of the winners in ST5 Panel (Chemical Synthesis and Materials Science), position No. 1, is the Project 'Pressurized Glassy Materials for Innovative Energy Storage and Conversion'. The leader is prof. Sylwester J. Rzoska (IHPP PAS, NL10: X-PressMatter Lab), and the Partner: prof. Jerzy E. Garbarczyk (Warsaw University of Technology, Faculty of Physics: WUT). It is a 4-year Project with a total value of 1,837,564 PLN: 1,344,440 PLN for IHPP PAS, and 493,124 PLN for WUT. New NCN OPUS grant will be realized in MBE Laboratory![]() Quantum technologies like modern cryptography, quantum computing and quantum memories will surely have a great impact on our everyday life in the near future. The promise of unprecedented computing speed offered by quantum computers imposes at the same a need to improve the encryption methods. Numerous research groups are involved in using quantum mechanics to work out new concepts and architectures to implement quantum communication in devices. The goal of this project is to develop one of the key components needed for quantum technologies: single photon light sources (e.g. for quantum key distribution protocol in telecommunication networks). An ideal single-photon source (SPS) for these applications should strictly provide on-demand generation of only one photon at ultrashort temporal intervals, with predefined and deterministic optical linear polarization, at temperatures relevant to on-chip environments. For the purpose of quantum computation these single photons should also be indistinguishable in their optical properties. |
50 years have passed! Summary of the UNIPRESS contribution to semiconductor physics![]() In 2022 the Institute of High Pressure Physics PAS (IHPP PAS), also known as UNIPRESS, celebrated its 50th anniversary. The contribution of UNIPRESS scientists to semiconductor physics and technology has been summarized by prof. Izabella Grzegory in the invited talk on „Jaszowiec 2022” conference - 50th International School & Conference on the Physics of Semiconductors. The most important subjects covered in her talk given at „Jaszowiec 2022” have been summarized in a paper published recently in Acta Physica Polonica A. Prof. Grzegory writes about the beginnings of pressure studies of narrow band-gap semiconductors, which today are extremely interesting due to their topological properties. She also discusses the fundamental aspects of gallium nitride (GaN) crystallization that is now the foundation of advanced physics and technology of optoelectronic devices currently being developed and manufactured in laboratories of the Institute.

Scientists from IHPP PAS at the Photonics West 2023![]() Scientists from our Institute will give five invited talks and five oral presentations at the international SPIE Photonics West conference in San Francisco (California, United States) on January 28 - February 2, 2023. New LIDER laureate at IWC PAN. Congratulations to dr inż. Anna Kafar!![]() We are pleased to announce that dr inż. Anna Kafar is a laureate of a LIDER Project funded by National Center for Research and Development (NCBiR). Her project title is "Photonic Integrated Circuit Based Single-Output Multi-Wavelengh (In,Al)GaN Monolythic Laser System", acronym PICkGaN. The PICkGaN project was on the podium of the ranking list of 49 projects qualified for funding! The final ranking list of projects qualified for funding in the 13th competition of the LIDER Program is available on the website of the National Center for Research and Development. |
