In Memoriam: Krzysztof JasikMonday, 12 January 2026 11:03 |
It is with deep sorrow that we received the news of the passing of Krzysztof Jasik, a long-standing technical staff member of the Crystal Growth Laboratory NL-3 at our Institute. We have lost a truly reliable and conscientious colleague—someone we could always count on, both in everyday work and whenever help was needed. Krzysztof was a warm, kind, and exceptionally helpful person. He brought not only expertise and experience to our team, but also genuine goodwill and attentiveness to others. He will be remembered with gratitude and respect as someone who contributed greatly to the daily life and work of our laboratory and Institute. We extend our heartfelt condolences to his Family and Loved Ones. SPIE Photonics West 2026Friday, 19 December 2025 19:29 |

10th anniversary of IMaSS, Nagoya UniversityMonday, 19 January 2026 18:02 |
The Institute of Materials and Systems for Sustainability (IMaSS), Nagoya University (Japan) celebrated its 10th anniversary in December 2025. Due to the active cooperation between IMaSS and our institute, we were invited to participate in this celebration. It was an honor for IHPP PAS and a meaningful sign of the strong relationship and scientific cooperation between our institutions. On the occasion of the anniversary, Professor Michał Boćkowski, Director of the Institute of High Pressure Physics PAS, presented IMaSS with a commemorative trophy with GaN crystal inside. In response, Professor Tomomi Uchiyama, Director of IMaSS, sent an official letter of appreciation to our Institute, emphasizing the significance of this thoughtful gesture and expressing his hope for continued collaboration and further development of academic ties between the institutions. We would like to thank IMaSS, Nagoya University for the warm welcome and kind words, and we wish continued success in its research activities.

Two researchers from the Institute of High Pressure Physics of the Polish Academy of Sciences (IHPP PAS, Unipress) will deliver presentations at an international online seminar organized by the International Solvothermal and Hydrothermal Association (ISHA) within the ISHA Seminar 2026 Series. The seminar will take place on January 26, 2026, from 12:00 to 14:00 (CET) and will focus on advanced topics related to the ammonothermal growth of gallium nitride (GaN) crystals, covering fundamental aspects of the process as well as the current state of the art and future development perspectives. During the seminar:
The session Chairperson will be Dr. Saskia Schimmel from Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen–Nürnberg (FAU), Germany. The seminar will be held online via Zoom platform. Participation is free of charge upon prior registration.

We are pleased to share that the article “Spontaneous and Piezo Polarization Versus Polar Surfaces: Fundamentals and Ab Initio Calculations” by P. Strak, P. Kempisty, K. Sakowski, J. Piechota, I. Grzegory, E. Monroy, A. Kaminska, and S. Krukowski, has been selected as an Editor’s Choice Article in the Materials journal by MDPI. The selection was made after a thorough evaluation by the journal’s Academic Editors, recognizing the paper for its academic originality, relevance to cutting-edge topics, rigorous argumentation, and clarity of structure, and the expectation that it will attract broad interest and academic attention. This paper presents fundamental insights into the interplay between spontaneous and piezoelectric polarization at polar surfaces, supported by ab initio (first-principles) computational analysis. The study advances understanding of how electric polarization phenomena influence the properties and stability of polar materials – a topic of high relevance for electronic, optoelectronic, and energy materials research. We congratulate the authors on this achievement and encourage to learn more about this work.
