Team of researchers at FAU develops simple method for removing glyphosate from water
Glyphosate is not only one of the most widely-used herbicides in the world, but also one of the most controversial chemical compounds, as it is suspected of being carcinogenic. In a study published in the journal Nature Sustainability, a team of researchers from FAU have demonstrated how glyphosate can be removed from water using a […]

Smaller, faster, more energy-efficient
High-performance devices for digital transformation Highly efficient power semiconductors are to pave the way for a wide range of novel applications – from e-mobility to artificial intelligence. This is the objective of the recently launched joint project “power transistors based on AlN (ForMikro-LeitBAN)” coordinated by the Ferdinand-Braun-Institut and in which FAU Engineers are involved. Smart […]High-performance devices for digital transformation Highly efficient power semiconductors are to pave the way for a wide range of novel applications – from e-mobility to artificial intelligence.
