Hi! My name is Candy Fu. I come from Wuhan, China. At this moment , I felt lucky and excited to commence my Ph.D study at ICMAB, a tremendously developed platform.  I’ve joined in the group of Superconducting Materials and Nanostructure at Large Scale under the supervision of Narcis Mestres. I am fond of dancing, running, and travelling.

The 2015 E-MRS Fall Meeting and Exhibit will was held in Warsaw University of Technology, from September 15 to 18 2015 Narcis Mestres presented a contributed oral presentation: “Confined Sol-Gel route to epitaxial integration of ferromagnetic nanowires on Silicon” In two different Symposia Simposium O: Alternative semiconductor integration in Si microelectronics: materials, techniques & applications Symposium L: Towards Oxide-Based Electronics: growth and applications of oxide thin films and heterostructures

The 12th European Conference on Applied Superconductivity EUCAS 2015 will be held from the 6th to the 10th of September 2015 Teresa Puig presented a contributed plenary conference: “Nanocomposite Coated Conductors: towards optimal vortex pinning for high field applications”

The 12th European Conference on Applied Superconductivity EUCAS 2015 will be held from the 6th to the 10th of September 2015. Cornelia Pop, at Materials – YBCO Thin films, presented a contributed oral conference: “Thick superconducting YBCO films and coated conductors at high growth rate by inkjet printing deposition of low fluorine solutions” Anna Palau, at Materials – Vortex flux pinning I, presented a contributed oral conference: “New nano-scale engineering strategies of solution grown YBCO nanocomposites for tuning vortex pinning landscape” Susana Ricart, at Materials – Vortex flux pinning I, presented a contributed oral conference: “Solution design for ReBCO CSD-MOD films and nanocomposites” Ferran Valles, at Materials – Vortex flux pinning II, presented a contributed oral conference: “Pinning and relaxation of vortices in CSD YBCO nanocomposites” Xavier Granados, at Large Scale – Superconducting machines, presented a contributed oral conference: “Stacks based superconducting motor: towards lightweight, efficient and simple propulsion systems” Xavier Obradors, at Materials – YBCO films II, presented a poster: “In-situ monitoring of oxygenation kinetics in solution derived YBCO films by electrical resistivity”

Prof. Teresa Puig (Institute of Materials Science in Barcelona – ICMAB, part of the Spanish National Research Council) is participating in NanoSC, a COST Action trying to build a better understanding of superconductivity, leading to new commercial devices and low cost materials. Her team is also leading EUROTAPES, a EU-funded project developing low cost high-temperature superconductors and enabling the vital technology transfer to European industry. FULL ARTICLE

From 18th May to 17th July 2015, Juan Carlos Gonzalez has visited Prof. Renner’s group at Département de Physique de la Matière Condensée, Université de Genève, Genève (Switzerland) to perform some experiments on “Scanning Tunneling Microscopy of Resistive Switching phenomena in La1-xSrxMnO3-x compounds” under the supervision  of Dr. Ivan Maggio-Aprile. http://dpmc.unige.ch/gr_renner/en/index.html

EL PAÍS: “Solo uno de cada 10 investigadores galardonados en la última edición de las Advanced Grants del Consejo Europeo de Investigación (ERC) es mujer. La diferencia entre sexos registrada este año es aún mayor de lo habitual. En España, entre los 13 investigadores que han conseguido este apoyo financiero, solo hay una mujer: Teresa Puig, del Instituto de Ciencia de Materiales de Barcelona.” http://elpais.com/elpais/2015/07/05/ciencia/1436092114_408581.html?ref=rss&format=simple&link=guid DESCARGAR PDF
