Annotation:	The goal of the project is adopting new rapid on-demand prototyping fab-less fabrication method of atomic-layer additive manufacturing (ALAM) to fabricate a matrix of non-identical microscopic TiO2-based hydrogen-sensing elements, arranged into pre-programmed hardware neural network (HNN). The first application is a fully ALAM-printed prototype of a smart Pt/TiO2-based low-power hydrogen sensor with low-level in-sensor data processing. Wider adoption of ALAM technology, which we will pursue through the open innovation hub framework, where rapid prototyping of various ALAM-printed HNN designs from stakeholders, will be encouraged. Project addresses the needs for novel process technologies considering circular economy with minimized waste and use of critical materials, and the need for new smart sensors with in-sensor data processing for the rising hydrogen energy infrastructure.

Annotation:	One of the fundamental results of quantum mechanics in the 1920s was the derivation of relativistic equations formassive fermions (Dirac), massless fermions (Weyl) and fermions that are themselves antiparticles (Majorana).Since those times, particle physics has been searching for particles representing Weyl and Majorana\'s fermions.However, their search has not yet been successful.In the last twenty years, it has been shown that the band structure of some materials has such uniquecharacteristics that the charge carriers in them can behave according to the dynamics satisfying the Dirac or Weylrelativistic equations. Such materials include compounds from the group of transition metals dichalcogenides,which we will focus on in our project.We will work with very thin layers of selected materials from this group, such as PtSe2, MoTe2 and WTe2. The firststep in the implementation of the project will be the preparation of such layers by chalcogenisation of thin films oftransition metals. Their transport and optical properties will then be thoroughly investigated. Temperaturedependent transport measurements can show us transitions between different structures of the same material. We expect that a metal-insulator transition can be observed when the thickness of such thin films is varied. Some ofthese materials can go into a superconducting state at very low temperatures. We will also try to induce this state inclose proximity, i.e. when the thin layer is in contact with another superconductor.Optical measurements will be correlated with transport measurements. We derive essential frequency-dependentcharacteristics, such as optical conductivity, from the latter. We will look for characteristics theoretically predictedfor Dirac and Weyl fermions in the optical conductivity.

Project leader:	Dehghan Mohammad
Annotation:	In-sensor computing is a new paradigm for 21st century electronics inspired by nature. In present-day electronics, all the noisy, unstructured data output by sensors needs to be digitised first for further processing. This may soon become a showstopper given the exponential rise in the amount of sensing devices and data they produce, both in consumer electronics like self-driving vehicles and in the Industrie 4.0 framework. On the other hand, in bio-inspired systems, the sensing and processing are not separate; instead, the sensing nodes directly form synaptic connections in the hardware neural network, where the external stimuli being sensed directly alter the synaptic weight matrix, allowing simple algorithms encoded in the neural network to process the signals into reasonable output in real-time. Under this thesis, the student will learn and understand how to build such a prototypical smart sensing system from scratch, i.e. by depositing, patterning and stacking ultra-thin (~nm) oxide and metal films into the simple sensor and memristor devices and arranging these building blocks into functional sensing neural network matrices on a chip. The expertise acquired will cover nano-fabrication methods with a focus on atomic layer deposition (ALD), material analyses and electrical characterisation techniques, and an understanding of the hardware neural networks based on emerging devices. The thesis will be a part of a wider project, and the student will become a part of our research team. We are looking for creative and dedicated team players, prior experience in related areas is a plus.

Annotation:	Research of thin-film materials noticed a significant increase, especially since the discovery of graphene, when a wide range of 2D materials began to study. A significant group of 2D materials is transition metal dichalcogenides(TMDs), including MoTe2, WTe2, and PtTe2. These materials have unique optoelectronic properties that varydue to the thickness of the layer and the crystal structure. Electrical properties vary depending on structures, fromsemiconducting to metallic. The preparation of films by tellurization of molybdenum, tungsten, and platinum ismore difficult than sulfurization or selenization due to the weaker redox properties of tellurium. The challenge in thin films is the controlled preparation of the required crystal structure of homogenous large-arealayers. This project aims to contribute to the solution of preparing these materials, characterize their structure and orientation of the films concerning the substrate, and determine the optical parameters and electrical properties.

Annotation:	Project is focused on the development and optimization of method of 3D deposition of conformal ultra-thincoatings using ALD (atomic layer deposition) on structures of complex morphology, such as micro-porous layersand powders. The method will subsequently be applied in preparation of new generation Li-based batteries, bypassivation and modification of micro-porous surfaces of cathode layers. Effect of ultra-thin ALD coatingsconformality at the nano-scale will be systematically evaluated by correlation of electron microscopy analyseswith electrochemical measurements of prepared batteries. Next step will be the modification of surfaces ofdiscrete metal and ceramic micro-particles and powders with the aim of their subsequent application in fabrication of novel ceramic and metal materials and also new materials for experimental battery electrodes.

Annotation:	In this project, we will focus on the theoretical and experimental investigation of magnetic vortices. The idea is touse them as a candidate for an information carrier in ultrafast and energy-efficient devices. The key idea of suchmemory is to use the two vortex core polarities as a magnetic bit that can be easily read and written via thedynamical reversal. We will search for the optimal shape of a magnetic 3D pattern with polarity easily controlledby a small in-plane magnetic field. In the second part of the project, we will design and prepare a system ofordered magnetic nanoelements in the vortex state set by an in-plane magnetic field. Such ordered nanoelementscan be considered as a single unit cell of the magnonic crystal. They can be also periodically arranged into afinite 2D array of interacting magnetic objects to observe the unidirectional spin waves. Therefore, ourinvestigation will be an important step towards the first experimental demonstration of topological magnons.

Annotation:	In this project we will focus on the theoretical and experimental investigation of spin wave dynamics at nanoscale. Spin wave is considered as candidate for an information carrier in ultrafast and energy efficient information processing devices. It is due the unique properties of spin waves, namely low heat dissipation, possible manipulation at nanoscale or reconfigurability. We are going to investigate specific spin wave systems, that can host robust, unidirectional and reprogrammable spin waves. Therefore, the results of this project will contribute to the field of modern magnetism, magnonics.

Annotation:	The discovery of graphene in 2004 has brought a massive interest of scientists active in condensed-matter physicson research of 2D materials. Even though these materials have a long history starting already in the twenties of the20th century, the past years have seen an intensive renascence of interest in 2D materials. Ultra-thin samples ofmany 2D materials have been successfully prepared with electronic properties that may exhibit correlatedelectronic phenomena such as charge density waves and superconductivity. One of the well-studied families of the2D materials are transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs). TMDs consist of hexagonal layers of metal atomssandwiched between two layers of chalcogen atoms with a MX2 stoichiometry.In this project, we focus on those materials from the TMD family that exhibit strongly correlated electronic states:NbSe2, TiSe2, TaS2, TaSe2 and PtSe2. The goal of the project is to prepare ultrathin (≤ 10 nm) layers and bulksamples and characterise them thoroughly in terms of the thickness, crystallinity, homogeneity, optical andelectronic properties. A special attention will be paid to charge density wave states and superconductivity in thesematerials and how they evolve with the sample thickness, doping, external electric and magnetic fields and detailsof the growth process.The scientific program also aims at preparing heterostructures built up of these materials as well as hybrid systemscombining TMDs with other materials. This research also includes a detailed characterisation of heterostructures toprovide a feedback to optimise the growth process.

Project leader:	Ing. Tóbik Jaroslav, PhD.
Annotation:	The subject of micro-magnetism studies are phenomena which are possible to describe on classicallevel of the theory. Micromagnetism describes processes in devices like bit-patterned media in harddisks,magnetic memories, magnetic radio-waves detectors, or bio and medical applications. Typicaldimensions of the devices active parts are order from micro-meter to few nanometers. Typical operationtemperature is room temperature. Usual model for these condition is classical physics. The mainproblem of the magnetic state stability simulation is the time-scale on which the magnetic statetypically persist. The magnetic state in memories is stable for years. There are several effectivealgorithms for finding lowest energy paths among metastable states. In order to search for stablemagnetic states effectively, we decided to implement matadynamics algoritm into micro-magneticsolvers.

2DMOSES - 2D materials beyond graphene: monolayers, heterostructures and hybrids
Duration:	1. 7. 2016 - 31. 12. 2019
Evidence number:	15-0693
Program:	APVV
Project leader:	Dr. rer. nat. Hulman Martin
Annotation:	Two-dimensional (2D) materials have been one of the most extensively studied classes of materials due to their unusual physical properties. The best example is graphene – a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in a two dimensional (2D) honeycomb lattice. Many graphene´s extraordinary properties have been reported including excellent electronic and thermal conductivities and mechanical properties. Its discovery has also stimulated an extensive research on other 2D materials. It has been shown that it is not only possible to exfoliate stable, single-atom thick 2D materials, but that these materials can exhibit unique and fascinating physical properties. The 2D structure determines the electronic properties that may exhibit correlated electronic phenomena such as charge density waves and superconductivity. In this project, we focus on preparation of ultrathin (< 10 nm) films and monolayers of materials from the family of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs). The goal is to prepare those layers on a centimetre-large scale. For that, pulsed laser deposition and magnetron sputtering are the methods of our choice. As-prepared layers will then be thoroughly characterised in terms of their thickness, crystallinity, homogeneity, optical and electrical properties. As a next logical step, we will proceed in preparation of heterostructures and hybrids – systems where different TMDs materials and TMDs and graphene or graphene oxide are stacked on top of each other, respectively.

Project leader:	Ing. Šoltýs Ján, PhD
Annotation:	Cantilever-based sensors are used for the detection of physical, chemical, and biological analytes. In principle, every external perturbation of magnetic, electrical, thermal, or chemical origin can be transducted into mechanical motion. A cantilever deflection can be measured with extremely high sensitivity and selectivity. The project aims to develop new techniques for modification of commercial scanning force probes and to produce new cantilever-based sensors. The key enabling technology of the novel sensors is focus ion beam ablation and on-chip electron beam lithography. Application of such techniques in cantilever sensing opens new functionalities of the cantilever, which can be used for sensor applications and research purposes in physics and biomedicine.

Possible mechanisms of excitations (e.g., current or external field) will be considered and the possibility of experimental verification of numerically studied structures will be evaluated. An important part of the work will be dedicated to the study of collective skyrmion modes, a topic of research that is completely unexplored yet. On the basis of the obtained results a logic device will be proposed.
