A summary of 2025 at the Gdańsk University of Technology

PG2025
Patented inventions, groundbreaking technologies, innovative research and projects. The university's strong position in national and international rankings, and unwavering interest in studying at Gdańsk Tech. Student achievements, top honours in academic sports and continued support for school pupils. It has been a good 12 months for the Gdańsk University of Technology. We bid farewell to and summarise the year 2025.

“I will proudly look back on the achievements we have made in the year that is coming to an end. The work of our scientists, doctoral students and undergraduates deserves the highest praise. Our position in this year's rankings confirms the hard work we do at the Gdańsk University of Technology. I am convinced that the coming year will be another year of great success.

What lies beneath the invisible layer of semiconductors? Publication in "Nature"

Kowalkińska
Marta Kowalkińska, MSc, Eng., a doctoral student at the Doctoral School at the Gdańsk University of Technology, is researching the photocatalysis process. Her article on the study of photoactive semiconductors using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy has just been published in Nature Reviews Clean Technology. Publication in a Nature portfolio journal is a special achievement for a researcher who does not yet have a PhD.

In her article, the doctoral student argues that X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) is an excellent tool for understanding what happens on the surface of a semiconductor. This knowledge may prove useful in proposing solutions aimed at increasing the energy conversion efficiency of photoactive materials used, among others, in photovoltaics and photocatalysis.

Diamond-based sensors – technology with a European patent that could revolutionise medical diagnostics

somebody
Prof. Robert Bogdanowicz's team from the Department of Optoelectronics at the Gdańsk University of Technology has been granted exclusive rights to innovative electrodes using nanodiamonds by the European Patent Office. This is one of the few patents of this kind in Europe. At the same time, another patent application – concerning optical sensors with quantum colour centres – has been approved. Both technologies may have a significant impact on the future of medical diagnostics.

The patent protects a solution that scientists at the Gdańsk University of Technology have been working on for three years – a double-layer electrode, which combines a 3D-printed graphene-polymer matrix composite with an ultra-thin nanodiamond film. Why is it so important?
