From model systems to high tech materials via digital strategies

Tackling crucial technological and ecological challenges relies heavily on the availability of new materials. Without them, reducing industrial CO₂-emissions or realizing environmentally friendly mobility would hardly be possible. The digital strategies developed at the Max-Planck-Institut für Eisenforschung extend fundamental methods originally developed for idealized model systems to real materials. This opens up completely new approaches for materials research and for accelerated materials design.
