Superconductors: Amazingly orderly disorder
A surprising effect was discovered through a collaborative effort by researchers from TU Wien and institutions in Croatia, France, Poland, Singapore, Switzerland, and the US during the investigation of a special material: the atoms are arranged in a completely disordered manner but produce magnetic order.
A Snapshot of Relativistic Motion: Special relativity made visible
A technical trick has been used to simulate a speed of light of only 2 m/s in the laboratory. This made it possible to reproduce the relativistic Terrell-Penrose effect for the first time.
New, non-toxic synthesis method for ’miracle material’ MXene
The nanomaterial MXene is used for battery technology or as a high-performance lubricant. Until now, its production was difficult and toxic. New methods have been developed at TU Wien.
TU Wien at the EXPO 2025 in Osaka
From April to October, TU Wien will be showcasing its scientific excellence with ten projects. Another aim at the world exhibition: international networking.
Climate Change Affects Rain and Floods
Rain and floods occur on different time scales - hours or days. Now, for the first time, it is possible to explain how climate change affects phenomena on both time scales.
Extremely Low Friction Thanks to New Solid State Lubricant
By combining organic and inorganic chemistry, scientists at TU Wien developed the innovative lubricant COK-47 - with remarkable capabilities.
Quantum cryptography for everyday use
TU Wien, the University of Innsbruck and the company qtlabs are working together on a major FFG-funded.
The metal that does not expand
Breakthrough in materials research: an alloy of several metals has been developed that shows practically no thermal expansion over an extremely large temperature interval.
New hybrid materials as efficient thermoelectrics
An international team led by Fabian Garmroudi has succeeded in producing new, efficient thermoelectric materials that could compete with state-of-the-art materials, offering greater stability and lower cost.
How to get rid of carbon dioxide for good
What happens when captured CO2 is pumped into the ground? Highly sophisticated computer simulations now make it possible to predict its long-term behaviour.
Quantum light source for eco-friendly production of biogas
At TU Wien (Vienna), methods are being developed to extract valuable substances from biomass - and quantum cascade lasers offer some very interesting new possibilities.
Converting CO2 into fuel - with the help of battery waste
Upcycling as a climate game-changer: A nanocatalyst has been produced at TU Wien based on spent batteries and aluminium foil residues, converting CO2 into valuable methane.
Light from Artificial Atoms
Superconducting circuits are being used at TU Wien and ISTA to create new types of quantum systems that are much easier to control and much more tunable than natural quantum systems like atoms.
What does ’resolution’- Microscopy puzzle solved
A new microscopy method can identify molecules. However, the question of its resolving power proved to be a difficult puzzle. It has now been solved at TU Wien.
Even Quantum Physics Obeys the Law of Entropy
Is there a contradiction between quantum theory and thermodynamics? On the surface, yes - but at TU Wien, researchers have now shown how the two fit together perfectly.
