On February 17, 2025, the Institute of Electrical Engineering of the Slovak Academy of Sciences (IEE SAS) welcomed distinguished representatives from the Taipei Representative Office in Bratislava (TROB), led by Mr. Nan-Yang Lee. The visit aimed to exchange information and review the milestones of the ongoing bilateral SK-TW project, conducted in collaboration with Taiwan’s Industrial…

IEE SAS invite you to a lecture by Prof. Roman Martoňák (FMFI UK). Febr. 12, 2025, 10,00 a.m., in IEE SAS meeting room 101. Simulations of Structural Phase Transitions in Crystals Using Metadynamics Abstract: Structural phase transitions in crystals induced by pressure or temperature are complex phenomena of great importance. Besides fundamental interest e.g. in Earth…

Two-dimensional (2D) molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) has attracted widespread attention due to its unique electronic, mechanical and optical properties. It is a material composed of several atomic layers of MoS2 held together by van der Waals forces. Our colleagues from the Department of Microelectronics and Sensors have prepared high-quality 2-5 monolayer thick MoS₂ layers on sapphire…

Technological advancements in nanolithography now enable precise manipulation of magnetic properties at the nanoscale. Their innovative method leverages a titanium buffer layer to enhance the focused ion beam (FIB) process. Our team from Department of Physics and Technology at nanoscale IEE SAS has unveiled new insights into the effect of ion beams on magnetic nanostructures….

Our colleagues from the department of III-V semiconductors IEE SAS, Slovak University of Technology, and Wuhan University in China have achieved a significant advancement in high-electron-mobility transistor (HEMT) technology prepared from GaAs semiconductor. These devices, crucial for applications in space and defence technologies, high-frequency communication, or quantum computing, where compound-semiconductor amplifiers are widely used. Such…

The newly founded interest association SK Chips wants to contribute to the development of the ecosystem of semiconductor technologies in Slovakia. On Friday 22.11.2024 the constituent meeting of the interest association of legal entities named Slovak Centre for Semiconductors or SK Chips in short took place. The founding members of the association are the Ministry…

This year, we proudly participated in the European Night of Science – Visit Your School – Meet Your Scientist, where we were brilliantly represented by Michal Sobota at Gymnázium na Ul. Ladislava Sáru. Science is not just about theories in textbooks but about the thrilling process of discovery. We believe that our stories, motivation, and achievements can…

Our colleages at Department of Superconductor at IEE SAS uncovered the significant effects of surface scratches on REBCO (Rare-Earth Barium Copper Oxide) superconducting tapes. These tapes, widely used in high-temperature superconductor (HTS) applications, face substantial mechanical stress during manufacturing and operation. The study, published in Physica C, reveals how even minor surface damage can lead…
