New project at BlitzLab: Improved SRF-cavities due to FLA!

In the constantly evolving world of particle accelerators, Superconducting Radiofrequency (SRF) cavities play a crucial role in pushing the boundaries of scientific discovery. However, the production of such systems faces challenges concerning the performance and cost of superconducting thin coatings.We are pleased to announce that our team member, Dr. Sławomir Prucnal, has become a part of the IFAST project, located at the renowned CERN (European Organization for Nuclear Research). The BlitzLab is developing a new thermal method based on the…

Attention students! We offer exciting bachelor and master theses!

The BlitzLab provides two options for students who are enthusiastic about future-oriented battery technologies. Our focus is on the silicon anode in lithium-ion batteries (LIB) - an innovation that significantly increases energy efficiency and drastically reduces charging times. However, there are challenges here, such as the volume change during the charging cycle and the stabilization of the solid electrolyte interface (SEI).The through the proportion of active material, e.g. Silicon, in an electrode specific basis weight and the electrode density, represent…
