Science and nanotechnology inspire new voices in Andalusian secondary schools: the ‘nano-story’ contest returns
The initiative of the Institute of Materials Science of Seville (ICMS), a joint center of the CSIC and the University of Seville, is part of the XI Festival of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology ‘10alamenos9’. The winning ‘nano-story’ in each age category will receive a...
Exciton-Polaritons in Nanoscale Metal-Organic Frameworks: A Platform for the Reversible Modulation of Strong Light-Matter Coupling via the Chemical Environment
We demonstrate robust exciton-polariton formation in planar metallic optical cavities incorporating porphyrin-based Metal-Organic Framework (MOF) nanoparticles. Our fabrication strategy employs highly monodisperse fluorinated MOF nanoparticle monolayers, sequentially...
Researchers at the IBVF have shed new light on the biological origins of the Great Oxidation Event
The article demonstrates that even the simplest filamentous cyanobacteria possess specialized structures that enable intercellular communication. This supports the hypothesis that the evolution of filaments contributed to the Great Oxidation of the Earth, as it played...
