- Abstract (EN)
- The year 2023 was highly successful, marked by significant high-level publications and the acquisition of new projects. The latter is increasingly crucial given the tight budget in 2023, which is expected to become even tighter in 2024 due to rising costs and well-deserved salary increases for our employees. As a result, we must reduce the number of our non-permanent scientific staff, which will impact future productivity. Despite these challenges, our performance in 2023 remained outstanding with a total of 178 refereed publications and an average impact factor of 8.1. Notable publications include 8 from the Nature Publishing Group, 7 from Advanced (Functional) Materials, 4 from ACS Nano, and 2 from Angewandte Chemie. Our excellence was further recognized by the HZDR Research Award, which again went to our Institute, this time awarded to Dr. Oleksii Volkov and Dr. Oleksandr Pylypovskyi from the Department of Intelligent Materials and Devices for their theoretical and experimental investigations into chiral symmetry breaking in magnetic 3D textures. Furthermore, Dr. Lukas Körber, who completed his PhD in 2023 with summa cum laude, was the recipient of both the Helmholtz Doctoral Award in the research field of Matter and the HZDR Doctoral Award. Prof. Manfred Helm was honored as an APS Fellow. In 2023, the majority of newly approved projects are financed by the Saxonian Ministry of Science, Culture and Tourism and the Helmholtz Initiative and Networking Fund which is a confirmation of the application relevance of our research. Our infrastructure upgrades are progressing as planned. The new AMS (Accelerator Mass Spectrometry) building was handed over to us in fall 2023. This year, we anticipate the arrival of our new 1 MV accelerator, which will be a dedicated AMS system. We aim to achieve full user operation by 2025. Finally, we extend our heartfelt thanks to all partners, friends, and organizations who supported our progress in 2023. We are particularly grateful to the Executive Board of the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf, the Ministry of Science, Culture and Tourism of the Free State of Saxony, and the Federal Ministries of Education and Research, and of Economic Affairs and Climate Action. Many partners from universities, industry, and research institutes worldwide have been essential to our development. Lastly, the directors wish to thank all members of our institute for their exceptional efforts and contributions in these extraordinary times.
