[Pressemitteilung der TU Dresden]

Noch in diesem Jahr einen PCR-Schnelltest für COVID-19 und andere Erreger zu entwickeln - das ist das Ziel einer neuen Nachwuchsforschungsgruppe an der TU Dresden. Der neuartige Test soll die Vorteile der Antigen-Schnelltests, schnelle Testergebnisse, mit den Vorteilen der PCR-Tests, hohe Genauigkeit, kombinieren. Solche deutlich effizienteren Tests werden die flächendeckende Diagnose für künftige Wellen und Pandemien ermöglichen.

In close collaboration with the Leibniz Institute for Solid State and Materials Research Dresden (IFW Dresden), the Ernst Ruska-Centre for Microscopy and Spectroscopy with Electrons at the Research Center Jülich (ER-C), and the Max-Planck Institute for Chemical Physics of Solids (MPI-CPS), researchers from the Dresden Center for Nanoanalysis (DCN) at the TU Dresden have conducted ground-breaking measurements that allowed to characterize the three-dimensional spin texture of skyrmion tubes with unrivalled resolution.

Scientists from TU Dresden, in cooperation with researchers at Seoul National University (SNU) and Korea University (KU), demonstrated the role of the re-use of photons (known as ‘photon recycling’) and light scattering effects in perovskite solar cells, providing a pathway towards high-efficiency solar energy conversion. The study has been published in the renowned journal ‘Science Advances’.

Technology permeates our lives in the daily routine: a multitude of intelligent interconnected devices on the edge of the network constantly helps us in carrying out our everyday tasks. However, to meet the strict power and memory constraints of edge devices and give them the ability to learn from their experience and collaborate together, a radical paradigm shift beyond the current Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) technology is required.
