IMC REACTIVE team goes to France
Three IMC PhD students, Martin, Marcel and Jorit had the opportunity to visit fellow scientists and collaboration partners at the Gremi in Orleans who hosted the half-yearly project meeting. The DFG-ANR funded binational REACTIVE project focuses on new plasma assisted spatial ALD processes for solar cell applications. The host team showed the latest developments for a new plasma source. All the partners contributed their latest work such as precursor chemistry from our IMC group to spatial ALD performed by the Grenoble team, and solar-cell application studies in Strasbourg. After this great exchange and a very interesting lab tour through facilities otherwise quite remote to us chemists, the event was concluded by a nice French lunch. After a little tour of the city, the IMC team headed back through Paris with a head full of new ideas.
