From Batik to Biotech: NTNU’s World of Opportunities

NTNU recently hosted "Patterns of Indonesia," where students explored Indonesian batik through traditional clothing, cuisine, and cultural insights. Organized with Indonesian students from IISMA, the event exemplifies NTNU’s commitment to cross-cultural understanding. In addition to such events, programs like TEEP, IIPP, and IISMA foster a multicultural campus that unites local and international students in a globally focused learning environment.

How two-dimensional nano materials can help perovskite solar cells

Traditional solar cells primarily use silicon as its main material. However, with rapid advancements in technology, perovskite solar cells—a third-generation technology with lower costs and shorter production times—are now considered the most promising alternative to silicon-based solar cells. Professor Wen-Chin Lin of the Department of Physics at National Taiwan Normal University leads a research team that is actively exploring the potential of perovskite materials. They are attempting to combine ferromagnetic metals with perovskite, but achieving a stable bond between these two distinct materials presents a significant challenge. To overcome this, the team has successfully used two-dimensional materials to address surface tension issues, offering new insights into semiconductor material research.
