    Marco and Basil defended their Master thesis at this year’s Mini Master Symposium

    Today, our Master students Marco and Basil presented the results of their Master projects in this year’s Mini Master Symposium. Marco showed us his findings from spectro-electrochemistry on the novel semiconducting polymer PE2OE4 while Basil presented his work on chemical doping of the glycolated organic semiconductor PBTTT. Thanks to you…
