TY - RPRT A1 - Knigge, Xenia A1 - Radnik, Jörg T1 - Advanced materials for the energy transition N2 - The climate crisis is the burning issue of our time. In order to avert the impending consequences, global efforts are being made in a wide variety of social and scientific fields. This report looks at a small part of these efforts, a technical aspect, namely the question of which AdMa are currently considered in techniques to support the energy transition. AdMa, i.e. materials that are rationally designed to have new or enhanced properties, and/or targeted or enhanced structural features, are used in all sectors of the energy transition. Questions of energy generation, storage and saving are considered here. This report is based on literature research and contains a general compilation of various AdMa that are used in the energy transition or are being researched for this purpose. From this compilation, ten materials that are considered particularly relevant for various reasons were selected and examined in more detail in relation to their use. The specific question here lies in the conflicting objective that the development of technologies for the energy transition is welcomed, but the use of AdMa may entail possible challenges in view of chemical safety as well as sustainability and circular economy.

The aim of CCQM-K157 is to establish the measurement traceability and to ensure the equivalency in the measurement capability of national metrology institutes for the thickness measurement of HfO2 films. In this key comparison, the thicknesses of six HfO2 films with the nominal thickness range from 0.7 nm to 6 nm were compared by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), x-ray reflectometry (XRR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE) and medium energy ion scattering spectrometry (MEIS).

The final report has been peer-reviewed and approved for publication by the CCQM, according to the provisions of the CIPM Mutual Recognition Arrangement (CIPM MRA).
