AMO’s vision of the Digital Hardware Hub Aachen passed the first crucial test

The Digital Hardware Hub Aachen is a project proposed by AMO GmbH as a measure to support the transition to a coal-free economy in the Rhine region. The goal is to establish a central infrastructure for nanotechnology to support start-ups and SMEs in the high-tech sector.

How nanotechnology can help solving water shortage problems

Nanotechnology can reduce the energy costs of wastewater treatment processes and make direct water-reuse both technically and economically feasible – a goal targeted by AMO and partners in the BMBF-project PEPcat (“Energy-efficient advanced oxidation for removal of organic substances in wastewater through plasmonically enhanced photocatalysis”).

A scalable manufacturing-technology for highly sensitive photodetectors on flexible substrates

Researchers from AMO GmbH and RWTH Aachen University have successfully demonstrated high-responsivity  molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) photodetectors on flexible substrates, realized with a scalable manufacturing-technology. The work has been recently published in the journal ACS Photonics, and it is the result of a cooperation with the University of Siegen, Raith B.V., AIXTRON SE, and the University of […]
