Saarland University Professor Achieves Highest Award in Field of Microscopic Materials Research

For materials with complex internal structures, researchers still do not precisely understand which substances or which mechanisms are responsible for controlling a desired material property. Experience gathered over many years can, of course, help them deduce how specific additives or processing steps may affect a material.
