This innovation, published in Advanced Materials, leverages oxygen vacancies in hafnium-zirconium oxide films to modulate heat flow, offering potential applications in thermal management for electronics, energy conversion, and heat-based information processing.
A team from CiQUS has developed a thermal memory prototype capable of switching heat conduction "on" and "off" using small electric voltages. The device, based on ultra-thin ferroelectric films, mimics the behavior of electronic bits, enabling stable and reversible control of thermal conductivity.

The project builds on previous discoveries of a ruthenium complex with cytostatic activity and a unique mechanism of action, aiming to develop next-generation complexes with enhanced efficacy and selectivity.
This position is part of the RuCSCMET project, focused on designing and developing novel metal-based anticancer agents targeting cancer stem cells (CSCs).

O dióxido de carbono pode considerarse un "residuo" do noso planeta. Agora, un equipo do @ciqus.bsky.social trata de reciclalo e convertelo en materia prima. O obxectivo é potenciar reaccións químicas máis sostibles.
⏳ Falta pouco! CiQUS na Nerd Nite Santiago
Este xoves 26, ás 20:30h, na Nave de Vidán (Av. Mestra Victoria Míguez, 44) 📍
Un plan divertido, diferente e cheo de ciencia. ¡Te esperamos!

The study, published in JACS, presents an unconventional strategy to uncage drugs in live settings, based on photoredox unmasking of aromatic C–H bonds.
El resultado: un pentámero de ftalocianinas, una nanoestructura con propiedades electrónicas y magnéticas en una sola molécula.
Este avance, reconocido como 𝘝𝘦𝘳𝘺 𝘐𝘮𝘱𝘰𝘳𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘵 𝘗𝘢𝘱𝘦𝘳 y destacado en la portada de Angewandte Chemie, abre nuevas posibilidades en electrónica molecular y materiales avanzados
🪡 Un trabajo liderado desde el #CiQUS por Luis M. Mateo y Diego Peña ha desarrollado una estrategia sintética híbrida que combina química en disolución y reacciones sobre superficies metálicas para crear arquitecturas moleculares inéditas.
