Judith and Ingon visited Tokomak Energy, near Oxford.  We are pictured here (from left to right) with David Kingham (Executive Vice Chairman and co-founder of Tokomak Energy), Tom Bedford (former PhD student in our group, now working at Tokomak Energy), Judith and Ingon (new PhD student). We look forward to continued collaborations with Tokomak Ene…

Judith and Ingon had a very interesting visit to Sunam, near Seoul. Sunam is a manufacturer of second-generation superconducting wires and high field magnets. 

It was great to meet for dinner with a number of Korean collaborators in Seoul. 

A number of group members were very happy to attend the wedding of Ji Soo Kim in Seoul. Congratulations from the whole group!

The Driscoll group had a fun Christmas party at her house.

The DMG had a great Karaoke Christmas Party at Trinity College.

Ziyi presented a poster, investigating Thin-Film Design Strategy for Enhancing Cyclic Endurance in WO3-Based Resistive Switching Memory Devices. Benedetta gave a talk on the topic of Sodium-Controlled Interfacial Resistive Switching in Thin Films. It was a great experience, we thank to the organizers and we are grateful to have partecipated!

Judith was pleased to attend and give an invited talk at the Innovate UK event on, “Future Computing Technologies and Energy Efficient Computation: Neuromorphic Computing", in London (King’s College Institute of Health Engineering).  The importance of this growing field was confirmed by the many speakers and government funders. It was a great oppor…

Here is a picture of the Yildiz group from MIT meeting with Benedetta and Ziyi from the group at the Fall MRS 2024 meeting in Boston.

Markus had the privilege of serving as the designated UK expert on Neuromorphic Computing for the British Standards Institution at the International Electrotechnical Comission meeting in London. Work is ongoing to compile an international technical report on neuromorphic device measurements.

It is great to see in the news sent to many people today from the University of Cambridge Alumni team. The news showed a picture of our former postdoc, Debasis Nayak,in front of the Maxwell Royve PVD system (which  we helped design and which is used by our group and other groups). The email was advertising a new scheme from Trinity College to fund …

Many congratulations to Moritz Muller for passing his PhD today !!!  Here he is pictured with his external examiner, Dr. Regina Dittmann and Prof. Driscoll in the Department. 

Judith spent an exciting day in the Chemistry Dept. delivering an invited lecture, and doing career mentoring of materials chemistry researchers, as all as having discussions with senior materials chemistry staff. 

 Judith was happy to visit colleagues in Barcelona (UAB and ICMAB) and to deliver a talk at a 1 day meeting on oxide epitaxy:  https://epitaxy2024.icmab.es/
