- The award-winning poster of Mr Ferry Prins, a PhD student in the Kavli Institute of Nanoscience (Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands) in the group of Prof. Herre S. J. van der Zant, was entitled “Design for an all-electric single molecule motor and a room temperature molecular memory element”. This work includes the construction and characterization of new device architectures, and also the development of novel concepts on a theoretical level.
- Mr Titoo Jain, who is a PhD student in the Nano-Science Center & Department of Chemistry at University of Copenhagen, Denmark, in the group of Prof. Thomas Bjørnholm, won for his poster entitled “Towards single-molecule junctions via self-assembly of gold nanorods“. This work is focused on nanoparticles and molecular and organic electronics.
NJC wishes to congratulate the two laureates who receive a one-year subscription to the journal. Our thanks go to the organizers of the conference for their help in organizing these awards, and our deep gratitude to all of the senior scientists who served on the jury to select the two winners.
