The winter season virus has struck – and covid-19 is still part of everyday life. But unlike during the pandemic, we now know more about how the virus is spread through the air we breathe. Research results from Malin Alsved and Jakob Löndahl show that it only takes a few minutes in the same room as an infected person to catch the virus. The aerosol researchers at LTH are behind the study, in which

Modern computers are a triumph of technology. A single computer chip contains billions of nanometre-scaled transistors that operate extremely reliably and at a rate of millions of operations per second. However, this high speed and reliability come at the cost of significant energy consumption: data centres and household IT appliances like computers and smartphones account for around 3% of global

Linnéa Jönsson and Patrik Nilsson were two of the PhD students who seized the opportunity to have a research visit financed by NanoLund last year. This is a support that NanoLundians – PhD students as well as senior scientists – can apply for at any time. “Do it! You have to take the opportunity to do something like this if you get the chance,” says Linnéa Jönsson. As a researcher at NanoLund, you

Polymer nanowires remain conductive after lithography-free manufacturing enabling an excellent path for intracellular bioelectronic manipulation of stem cells and algae. A new study spearheaded by NanoLundians Damien Hughes and Martin Hjort presents a simple, yet efficient way to bring conductive polymers into a nanowire shape suitable to interface with living cells – and even allowing them to get

The Boards of the Faculty of Engineering (LTH) and the Faculty of Science have decided to aim for a more modest establishment in Science Village, i.e. the area between Max IV and ESS. They justify the decision by the fact that the Departments of Physics and Chemistry would incur high rental costs if both research and education were to move, says Annika Mårtensson, assistant dean for research progr

What is the perfect recipe for semiconductors? Vanya Darakchieva is working on the answer in her research on novel semiconductor materials. As a professor of solid state physics at the Faculty of Engineering (LTH), she is a “research chef” designing the future cookbook for sustainable and safe electronics. Understanding and explaining the mysteries of nature was Vanya Darakchieva’s dream during he

Dark excitons are material excitations not visible under light illumination. Some acquire intrinsic momentum and become inherently mobile, which can be exploited in charge transport applications. Studying the properties of such excitons via spectroscopy is extremely challenging due to their dark nature. “Although the intrinsic mobility of dark excitons may be suitable for charge transport in futur

Supported lipid bilayers are formed at a faster rate on light-guiding nanowires of high curvature than on conventional planar substrates, with single-vesicle resolution that proves their potential for studying relevant cellular phenomena. This is shown in a recent study by researchers Julia Valderas, Ruby Davtyan, Christelle Prinz, Emma Sparr, Peter Jönsson, Heiner Linke, and Fredrik Höök. “We des

I den jättelika partikelacceleratorn Large Hadron Collider, LHC, vid CERN-laboratoriet i Schweiz och Frankrike når protonerna nästan ljusets hastighet innan de krockar med varandra. Resultaten ger oss ny kunskap om universums skapelse, dess minsta beståndsdelar, mörk materia och kanske ledtrådar om mörk energi. I mitten av juni samlas forskare från hela världen i Lund för att diskutera senaste nyt

I en studie konstaterar forskare från Sverige och Ungern att ljusa, målade ränder på kroppen skyddar naken hud mot insektsbett. Det är första gången som forskare lyckas bevisa att kroppsmålning har denna effekt. Att måla kroppen ger således ett skydd mot insektsburna sjukdomar. Kroppsmålning förekommer bland exempelvis vissa ursprungsbefolkningar. Majoriteten av dessa lever i områden där det är go

Forskare vid Lunds universitet har med hjälp av en unik kamera för första gången lyckats återge hur fåglar ser färger i sin omgivning. Studien avslöjar hur fåglarnas färgseende gör att de får en helt annan verklighetsuppfattning än vi människor. Människans färgseende bygger på tre grundfärger: rött, grönt och blått. Fåglarnas bygger på samma färger. Plus ultraviolett. Det biologer i Lund nu visar

Av alla nattaktiva djur är det bara dyngbaggar som navigerar med hjälp av polariserat månsken. Nu visar forskare vid Lunds universitet att skalbaggarna kan använda ljussignalerna trots att de tidvis är mycket svaga, och trots att konstgjorda ljuskällor, främst i städer, stör det naturliga ljuset från natthimlen. – Vår undersökning avslöjar att skalbaggarna kan vara tillräckligt ljuskänsliga för at
