Conducting research for a changing society: This iswhat drives us at Forschungszentrum Jülich. As a member of theHelmholtz Association, we aim to tackle the grand societalchallenges of our time and conduct research into the possibilitiesof a digitized society, a climate-friendly energy system, and aresource-efficient economy. Work together with around 7,400employees in one of Europe's biggest research centers and help usto shape change!
Dealing with the challengesimposed by climate change demands the realization of extremelyenergy-efficient hardware for future cognitive and self-learning ITsystems. This requires disruptive concepts involving newnon-volatile storage devices from new materials combined withinnovative circuit designs to overcome the performance limits oftoday's computers. The mission of Peter Grünberg Institute –Electronic Materials (PGI 7) (fz-juelich.de/de/pgi/pgi-7) is tocreate a scientific and technological basis for harnessingenergy-efficient neuromorphic computing inspired by the functioningof the human brain. Two-dimensional materials such as graphene andtransition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) offer high potential forscaling and back-end-of-line (BEOL) integration with CMOS circuits.Together with our partners in the BMBF-funded Cluster for FutureNeuroSys, phase 2 (neurosys.info), we aim at the wafer scaledeposition of 2D materials by means of metal organic chemical vapordeposition.
