Theory and Machine Learning for Crystal Growth![]() New lecture on crystal growth theory and application of machine learning for advanced modeling of crystal growth processes of semiconductor bulk crystals and epitaxial layers will be given within the scope of the physics courses in spring semester of Warsaw4PhD School. The 8-lecture course will be given on-line by dr Akira KUSABA from Kyushu University. The first lecture will be given on April 18th 2023 at 10.00 am. Visit the Warsaw4PhD webpage to find out more about the scope of the new course and get the Zoom meeting link. Candle collection for Ukraine![]() We invite you to make use of old, partly used candles and to support Ukraine. Wax and candles leftovers will be collected in the Institute of High Pressure Physics lobby at ul. Sokołowska 29/37 until April 12, 2023. The candles will then be melted down and transformed into ‘trench candles’ that will go to Ukraine. What is a trench candle? This is a metal can filled with a rolled cardboard, additionally flooded with wax. Such a candle is not only a source of light, but also allows people to heat or boil water. Taking into account the frequent power outages and problems with heating and electricity supply, such candles will be of a great help. Thank you for joining this action! Institute Seminar![]() Can the latest achievements of machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) pave a fundamentally new way of doing science? How to teach the algorithm a proper analysis of the huge amounts of data, highlighting anomalies and detecting patterns that humans could never have spotted? Dr Kazimierz Skrobas from our Institute, the Laboratory of Nanomaterials, will introduce the data processing technique called Machine Learning (ML) and show his material science research examples that employ AI. He will present an application of two simple ML algorithms called Decision Tree and Random Forest to X-ray diffraction data processing will be shown. X-ray diffraction is a basic tool for crystal structure characterization but in many cases analysis is not trivial and extraction of full information is cumbersome. This is true especially for nanostructures where crystal size, crystal shape, and deviation of the atomic structure from perfect periodicity are of particular interest. The Seminar “Application of Machine Learning to material science domain” will be held on Thursday, March 23, 2023 at 15:30* on Zoom platform. To get the link to join the seminar, please contact us at dyrekcja@unipress.waw.pl *note that the seminar will start at 15:30, that is 30 min later than usually. |
Gala of the XIII edition of the LIDER Program![]() On Tuesday, March 21, 2023, during the Gala of the XIII edition of the LIDER Program, dr inż. Anna Kafar from our Institute, among other young scientists received the diploma and symbolic check from Dr. Jacek Orzeł, p.o. director of the National Center for Research and Development (NCBR) and Ewelina Dadasiewicz, Director of Communication and Strategic Marketing.The video from the Gala was published today on the NCBR YouTube channel. Dr. inż. Anna Kafar will lead the project "Photonic Integrated Circuit Based Single-Output Multi-Wavelengh (In,Al)GaN Monolythic Laser System" with the acronym PICkGaN. The call for the next edition - XIV LIDER Program is now open! Don't hesitate to apply! Congratulations to Joanna Moneta!![]() On March 23, 2023, mgr inż. Joanna Moneta defended her doctoral dissertation entitled "Mechanisms of strain relaxation in InGaN films grown on (0001) oriented GaN substrates" supervised by prof. dr inż. Julita Smalc-Koziorowska. Congratulations for the high quality scientific work and excellent presentation of the PhD thesis! Good luck in the further scientific career path! VIIth Winter Workshop Kalatówki 2023![]() VIIth Winter Workshop Kalatówki 2023 on Physics and Applications of Nitride Semiconductors will be organized on March 26-31, 2023 in Zakopane (Poland). The workshop will gather the researchers from the Institute of High Pressure Physics Polish Academy of Sciences and from the collaborating scientific institutes. The Winter Workshop Kalatówki has been serving as a platform for exchanging information and ideas between the laboratories of the Institute of High Pressure Physics for years. Scientific subjects covered include physics and technology of quantum structures of AlInGaN semiconductors, mainly in the context of light emitters. Nitride-based electronics and crystal growth physics is also in focus. This year, the invited guests of the VIIth Winter Workshop Kalatówki 2023 will be Prof. Enrique Calleja (University of Madrid) and Prof. Tomasz Czyszanowski (Lodz University of Technology). |
