Butterfly Effect: ITMO Researchers Create Colorful Perovskite Films for Optoelectronics
…er to produce: they are obtained by solution chemistry methods – a faster and more economical approach suitable for mass production. At the same time, the quality of the raw materials (i.e. the reagents used to synthesize the semiconductors) is less critical for producing efficient device components, as they are less prone to defects. An important step in producin…

Chilean Researcher Ivan Martinez – on “Serious Russians,” Loving Chemistry, and Traveling for Science
…process very expensive. Besides, the membranes themselves have a short lifespan, meaning they must be changed often – and that’s another source of expenses. We’re working on materials that could effectively hold back the most problematic ions of seawater while also functioning at a relatively low pressure. We’re experimenting with different membrane properties in ord…

ITMO Scientists Increase Sensitivity of Levitating Particle Sensors
…n other words, a nano- or microparticle catches and reacts to the smallest external influences. A sensitivity this high is handy for all kinds of tests, for instance, for registering high-frequency gravitational waves or in meteorological studies. In recent years, levitating systems have been increasingly used in industry as compact, precise, and quick accelerometers…
