A group of scientists has observed for the first time band-like electron transport in a conjugated two-dimensional (2D) metal-organic framework film (Nature Materials, "High-mobility band-like charge transport in a semiconducting two-dimensional metal–organic framework"). This semiconducting behavior, together with its cost-effective production, opens the path for employing metal-organic frameworks as electroactive materials in electronic devices.

On 27 September 2018, the Excellence Commission announced the decision on the newly funded clusters within the framework of the Excellence Strategy. The Center for Advancing Electronics Dresden (cfaed) is a research cluster that has already been funded for one funding period within the previous Excellence Initiative and it looks back on many scientific successes from 2012-2018. cfaed has also played a decisive role in strengthening the attractiveness of the location for the local electronics industry and for new developments. With a newly adjusted research program, cfaed planned to build on these results in a second funding period and to follow up on many of the first successes, to lead to further breakthroughs and to link up with the newly added research fields of the program.

Together with the CRTD and other partners, cfaed is co-organiser of a conference aimed at female junior researchers and junior research group leaders from selected DFG-coordinated programmes at the TU Dresden. The three-day conference taking place in the INNSIDE Hotel close to the Frauenkirche offers numerous workshops (parallel workshops in English) and coaching opportunities. During fireplace talks with experienced female professors (rolemodels), the participants will be able to get into a conversation with them on pathways in research.

That was over way too fast: Last Friday, the 2018 cfaed Summer School Dresden Microelectronics Academy concluded with three talks and a wrap up by the chairs, Prof. Bartha and Prof. Mannsfeld. For five days, together with Globalfoundries, X-Fab, and Infineon cfaed once again presented Dresden’s synergetic semiconductor research and industry communities. We welcomed over 20 students and scientists from 14 nations in Dresden to the 17th edition of the prestigious academy. The DMA attracts participants who are fascinated by the latest innovations in the semiconductor industry and want to gain practical first-hand and expert knowledge. Top lecturers familiarized them with the fascinating world of semiconductors. Guided tours with industry professionals offered a deep insight into some of the most compelling work environments for leading engineers.
