Fascinating properties of quantum materials might lead to technological applications such as spintronics, quantum technologies, and quantum sensors. The combination of new materials discoveries and the development of new probes of quantum matter has helped shape these topics into an exciting area. Recent dynamic and pumped probe experiments reveal a strong promise of Dynamic Quantum Matter as a new research direction. We strive to measure, understand, and predict transient correlations and coherences in quantum materials upon different driving conditions. Therefore, we introduce it as a new topic for this year’s quantum matter conference. We seek to actively discuss hidden, entangled, and dynamic orders that emerge in quantum materials and matter. The main focus for this upcoming conference will be on the modeling and experimental observations of Dynamic Quantum Matter and Materials (DQMM). Overall, this workshop aims to bring together researchers to discuss and highlight emerging topics and develop ideas for future research.

  • High-Throughput Design of Magnetic Materials
    High-throughput Design of Magnetic Materials Hongbin Zhang Institute of Materials Science, TU Darmstadt, 64287 Darmstadt, Germany (Dated: August 28, 2020) Materials design based on density functional theory (DFT) calculations is an emergent field of great potential to accelerate the development and employment of novel materials. Magnetic mate- rials play an essential role in green energy applications as they provide efficient ways of harvesting, converting, and utilizing energy. In this review, after a brief introduction to the major functional- ities of magnetic materials, we demonstrated the fundamental properties which can be tackled via high-throughput DFT calculations, with a particular focus on the current challenges and feasible solutions. Successful case studies are summarized on several classes of magnetic materials, followed by bird-view perspectives for the future. Contents Glossary of acronyms I.

Land Smith 2021 MELS ii Abstract Sina Queyras, in the essay “Lyric Conceptualism: A Manifesto in Progress,” describes the Lyric Conceptualist as a poet capable of recognizing the effects of disparate movements and employing a variety of lyric, conceptual, and language poetry techniques to continue to innovate in poetry without dismissing the work of other schools of poetic thought. Queyras sees the lyric conceptualist as an artistic curator who collects, modifies, selects, synthesizes, and adapts, to create verse that is both conceptual and accessible, using relevant materials and techniques from the past and present. This dissertation responds to Queyras’s idea with a collection of original poems in the lyric conceptualist mode, supported by a critical exegesis of that work.

  • 01 ETH GB17 EN Low Honour
    49 Nicola Spaldin has already received numerous prestigious science awards for her revolutionary research in the field of materials science, including the 2017 L’Oréal-UNESCO for Women in Science Award, the 2012 Max Rössler Prize and the 2015 Körber Prize. But Spaldin is not only an outstanding researcher, she is also a passionate teacher. Three years ago, her students gave the British-born scientist a special honour: the Golden Owl award for her commitment to teaching. Spaldin's research lays the theoretical foundations for understanding and developing so-called multiferroic materials, which have the unique property of being simultaneously mag- netic and ferroelectric. Honours and awards Every year, many of ETH’s scientists receive prizes and awards in recognition of their work. Last year was no exception. Such awards not only enhance the university’s outstanding international reputation, but also demonstrate ETH’s continuing commitment to providing its researchers with the working environment and infrastructure they need to produce their very best academic performance. The prestigious grants awarded by the European Research Council (ERC) each year are a key measure of the university’s research quality. Two female researchers and one male researcher received a Starting Grant from the ERC for their projects undertaken at ETH. Starting Grants are awarded to support young talents early on in their academic careers. ETH also performed well in respect of Consolidator Grants, which are awarded to research- ers at a more advanced stage of their career. A total of five ETH scientists received grants of this type. Applications for ERC Advanced Grants are even more competitive, and here no less than eight ETH scientists were successful, all of them full or associate professors, and three of them winning an Advanced Grant for the second time.
