Steps toward a sustainable future

Christina Bjerkén and Denis Music participated in the Climate Network for Researchers at Malmö University. It is our vision to consolidate efforts on sustainability issues across the boundaries of Malmö University and better integrate Materials Science into such endeavors. Items were discussed to enable supportive and productive ways to form a collaborative and interdisciplinary network. These include teaching, seminars, possible common projects, and the like.

Grzegorz presents at annual Biofilms workshop

Grzegorz Sadowski gave a talk titled “Epitaxial growth and thermoelectric properties of Mg3Bi2 thin films deposited by magnetron sputtering” at the workshop “Biobarriers and biointerfaces: models and methods” in Malmö within the session “Novel materials and surfaces” chaired by Denis Music. The talked was based on his article in Applied Physics Letters (DOI: 10.1063/5.0074419). Mg3Bi2 thin film thermoelectrics can be applied near room temperature and have promising future for green energy generation.
