Novel glass materials made from organic and inorganic components
Research team from Jena and Cambridge develops glass materials with novel combinations of properties
The "Otto Schott Institute of Materials Research" (OSIM) is a cross-faculty institute of the Faculty of Physics and Astronomy and the Faculty of Chemistry and Earth Sciences of the Friedrich Schiller University Jena. Our research focuses on the correlation between structure and properties of different classes of materials as a function of their synthesis and application conditions, with a special emphasis on glass. The knowledge gained in this way is used in the design of new materials and the manufacture of tailor-made components and products using new methods of material characterization.
Research topics include:
