Workshop on “Emergent Properties of heterostructures”
October 23-25, 2023 | All registrations are sold out
Max Planck Institute of Microstructure Physics, Halle (Germany)
Scope
The workshop is part of the European Project FUNLAYERS – “Functional Layered Materials for Advanced Applications” and will bring together experts to discuss recent development and future directions in the broad area of emergent properties of heterostructures. Specifically, the workshop will focus on two topics:
Topic 1: Emergent phenomena such as topological superconductivity that arise at the interfaces between distinct materials, control of the electronic properties of heterostructures via strain, curvature, and piezoelectricity, and the interplay between geometric chirality and spin chirality.
Topic 2: Recent developments and future perspectives for layered materials for energy applications. This includes improving our understanding of the physical and chemical processes that arise during electrochemical ion insertion and exfoliation, the functionality of two-dimensional organic filters, ion dynamics in novel liquid electrolytes for next-generation battery concepts, and on-water surface synthesis.
Workshop goals and format
To share know-how and the capabilities and facilities of the MPI-MSP in order to prepare the groundwork for collaboration within the project and future collaborations. This will include a focus on advanced experimental techniques relevant to research into layered materials, including magnetic force and scanning tunnelling microscopy, magnetic imaging using Lorentz microscopy and electron holography, ARPES, SNOM, Raman Microscopy, Exfoliation, and other forms of sample preparation.
To discuss partnerships for European Funding Applications related to Topics 1 & 2 above.
Workshop Format
The workshop will include lectures by experts on the two broad topical themes, as well as ample time for discussion. A lab tour will be organised to showcase the MPI-MSP experimental research facilities. For students practical demonstrations of our advanced deposition (large MBE/sputtering/PLD cluster,...) and characterisation systems (TEM, RBS…) are planned. A poster session will also take place.

Route from the airport Leipzig/Halle
By Train from the airport station (about 15 min) with S-Bahn to the main railway station "Halle" and there change to public transport (e.g. tram). It is also possible to take a taxi directly from the main entrance of the airport to the MPI (takes about 40 min).
Directions from the central railway station Halle (Saale)
From "Halle (Saale) Hauptbahnhof" take tram no. 4 or 5 towards "Kröllwitz". The MPI is located near the stop "Weinberg Campus". To reach the Institute, cross Heideallee and Weinbergweg at the pedestrian lights and turn left into "Weinberg", a small, narrow, and hilly road. Please follow the signs leading the way to the Institute.
Tickets: Tickets can be purchased in every tram, at the HAVAG shop or the vending machine.
Directions for car drivers

Magdeburg / Dresden: Leave A14 at the exit Halle and into B100 towards Halle.
Munich, Frankfurt: Leave A9 at Schkeuditzer Kreuz and enter A14 towards Halle / Magdeburg. Leave A9 at the exit Halle and turn right into B100 towards Halle.
Stay on B100 towards Halle until you reach after 5 km the end of B100 at a traffic light.
Turn left and turn right after 300m towards Könnern into Paracelsusstraße.
After about 500m take the next exit into Wolfensteinstraße.
At the end of this street turn right into Burgstraße and then left again into Kröllwitzer Straße. Cross the Saale River.
After the bridge turn immediately right and drive along the Saale River on Talstraße (one-way street).
At the stop sign you turn left into Weinberg.
After about 200 m you see the building of the Technologie- und Gründerzentrum Halle (TGZ). There you turn left into Wolfgang-Langenbeck-Straße. At the next intersection, you turn right into Kurt-Mothes-Straße going up a small hill. After passing the Institute of Chemistry on the left-hand side you turn right into Weinberg.
