Thermoelectric generators (TEGs) convert waste heat into electricity and are increasingly being employed in aerospace and industrial waste heat conversion applications. Read more
The project. The fabrication and application of high temperature materials using acoustic levitation. Glasses are used in a wide range of technological applications for example, in windows, fibre optic cables, lasers and sensors. Read more
The project. Understanding high-temperature superconductivity in hydride compounds is of great importance to fundamental research and may lead to new applications. Read more
The project. High temperature superconductivity has the potential to transform use of electrical power, enabling low carbon technologies such as fusion reactors and electric airplanes. Read more
The project. The ability to control the self-assembly of biological molecules to form defined or functional structures with a high degree of predictability is a central aim for soft matter science and synthetic biology. Read more
The project. High temperature superconductivity has the potential to transform use of electrical power, enabling low carbon technologies such as fusion reactors and electric airplanes. Read more
The project. A new class of superconducting materials has emerged that host a metallic (resistive) state that fails to conform to the standard models of metallic behaviour, displaying strong signatures of incoherent transport. Read more
