Future materials conference 2024, Athens, Greece: Nucleation and growth of atomic layer deposited vanadium sulphide layers, Zsófia Baji, Zsolt Fogarassy, Orsolya Hakkel, Zoltán Szabó

We are delighted to announce that our part-time staff member, Ms Tímea Nóra Török, has successfully defended her doctoral dissertation and was awarded the prestigious 'summa cum laude' degree. We are proud of her pioneering research in the Development and Investigation of Ultra-Small On-Chip Resistive Switching Memory Devices. Our sincere congratulations to her and supervisor, Prof András Halbritter at BME.

Our TDK student, J. Áron Vándorffy received 1st Prize on Students' Scientific Conference (TDK) of Budapest University of Technology and Economics. Title: Development of a 2DEG-based selective frequency sensing system Supervisors: Péter Lajos Neumann Section: Electronics devices and technologies Congratulations.

BME-MFA team participates the opening meeting of the EU Horizon Pathfinder Challenges project, Quantum Bits with Kitaev Transmons (QuKit) at TU Delft.  The joint project of eight EU stakeholders aims to develop a novel qubit that is immune to most decoherence mechanisms currently limiting mainstream implementations of a quantum computer. This qubit, the Kitmon, is based on a hybrid between superconducting qubits and a two-dimensional platform.

Naturally the Nanosensors and BioMEMS labs were jointly present at the Researcher's Night event in Budapest. Nanotechnology is hard to demonstrate since it is normally confined to the laboratory it is being developed in. However our collegues presented all our latest advances in micro and nanotechnologies currently used in medical and scientific experiments of the MEMS and NEMS labs of the Centre for Energy Research.

During the Researchers' Night, the HUN-REN Microsystems and Nanosensors Laboratory offered exciting interactive demonstrations and experiments to the participants. Visitors to Salgótarján also had the opportunity to see how microsystems and nanotechnologies work and how they are used in different areas of everyday life. Laboratory staff were also on hand during the event to answer visitors' questions and talk about the current and future potential of nanosensor technology. The aim of the event was to raise awareness of the exciting world of scientific research and to encourage young people to take an interest in scientific careers. [...]
