UR is committed to ensuring an optimal research environment, nurturing scientists at every career phase, while championing equal opportunities, knowledge exchange, and innovation, through research-friendly infrastructures and dedicated intramural funding programs.

Cluster of Excellence: Center for Chiral Electronics

The German Research Foundation (DFG) is funding the Cluster of Excellence Center for Chiral Electronics (CCE) (external link, opens in a new window) with up to 64.5 million euros.

The University of Regensburg has applied for the cluster together with Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg (MLU) in Halle, Freie Universit?t Berlin and the Max Planck Institute of Microstructure Physics in Halle. The cluster will start in January 2026 and initially run for seven years.

The aim of the research collaboration is to develop innovative concepts for energy-efficient and high-performance electronics - based on the hitherto little-used property of chirality.
