One of the exciting areas in the IRTG is the potential coupling of the electro-optical and electro-mechanical phenomena to develop a diverse energy harvesting system. In addition to interdisciplinary research projects, this will also be directly addressed through an IRTG competition, where 4 groups of doctoral researchers, consisting of both German and Japanese doctoral researchers, will work collaboratively over the course of the two years to develop a concept to address the scientific question.
Coupling both phenomena (electro-optical and electromechanical) into one system
Groups:
Investigations on Opto-electro-mechanical Sensing Applications Based on Bismuth Ferrite – Simulation and Manufacturing
Piezophotonic and photostrictive effect in rare-earth metal doped glass- ceramics
Co-Deposition of photo-ferroelectric heterostructures
Schedule:
Announcement (Feb 28, 2023)
Introductory Meeting (May 2023)
Proposal Submission (Sep 2023)
Progress Presentations (Jan 2024)
Renewal Proposal Submission (Oct 2024)
Coupling both phenomena (electro-optical and electromechanical) into one system
This topic is open enough that it can entail materials development, device integration development, simulations, and structure development; the only limitation is imagination. A project manager of each team is responsible for organization, preparing the team proposal etc. The scientific question was presented at the Kick-off meeting. Afterwards all 4 teams had to submit a proposal explaining their research idea, proposed methods, a time plan and a financial justification for the requested funds. After reviewing the proposal reviews, PIs gave feedback to the teams which then presented their progress at the halfway point. At the yearly school, teams jointly present their final results. This friendly internal competition is judged on originality, feasibility, and scientific rigor.
Groups:
Investigation of stress-dependent material properties of Energy Harvesters
including PhD students from Project A, Project B, Project E and Project F
Electrooptical and Electromechanical Coupling of Photoferroic Solar Cells

including PhD students from Project A, Project B, Project G and Project K
Schedule
Start of the 2-year-collaborative project (Feb 26, 2020)
