Molecule-based magneto/electro/mechano-Calorics (MolCal)

This January we will start MolCal, a MSCA Doctoral Network whose overarching scientific goal is the preparation of new molecular assemblies with outstanding potential as caloric materials for refrigeration and heat pump applications at near-ambient and very-low temperature, and their exploitation in prototype devices. MolCal will offer PhD candidates the unique opportunity to boost their personal and career prospects by joining a cutting-edge interdisciplinary research and training programme. Activities will encompass chemistry, materials science, physics, and device fabrication.

Participating partners: CSIC, The University of Edinburgh, University of Crete, Bielefeld University, University of Seville, University Paris-Saclay, CNR, SunAmp, University of Zaragoza, Eindhoven University of Technology, Quantum Design North America, Lake Shore Cryotronics, BSH Spain.
