How new solid-state batteries deliver more energy, how a new technology enables better photovoltaic systems, how mRNA is transported and released when administered into the bloodstream, and what the future of electronic devices will look like with so-called “two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals materials” are topics of this year’s Scientific Highlights. In addition to the science, the annual report offers facts and figures about the MLZ and the FRM II.
