1 INSTITUTE OF GLASS AND CERAMICS 

Work in 2008 focused on fundamental aspects of processing of engineering and functional 

ceramics and of glasses. In the field of ceramics (Peter Greil) processing of ceramic/metal 

composites by means of three dimensional printing and laminated object manufacturing 

was continued. New activities are directed on fundamental aspects of stimulating crack 

healing in ceramic/metal composites and on vapour phase reaction to generate nanoscale 

diamond on silicon carbide template surface. Cellular lightweight ceramics are being investigated 

within the frame of cluster of excellence “Engineering of Advanced Materials”. 

In the area of functional ceramics (Andreas Roosen) research addressed processing of 

nano-sized powders for tape casting and printing technologies. Screen printing and soft 

lithography were investigated to achieve improved properties of sintered ceramics in the 

field of printed electronics. Drying induced stress formation and anisotropic shrinkage during 

sintering of LTCC multilayer devices were analysed. In the field of colloidal processing 

a very successful conference on “Ceramics Processing of Suspensions” was held in the 

Town Hall of Erlangen in cooperation with the German Ceramic Society (DKG) which 

attracted more than 140 participants from industry and academia. 

In 2008 Professor Rudolf Weißmann, formal head of the glass group since 1989, retired. 

His successor Professor Lothar Wondraczek (see staff) started to work on April 1 st . His 

major research interests include glass structure, mechanical and optical properties, the use 

of glasses for conversion of light, and thermophysical aspects of the glass transition. A 

close cooperation with the Max Plank Institute for Optics on the development of glasses 

for optical and photonic amplifications was already started within the frame of the Erlangen 

Cluster of Excellency “Engineering of Advanced Materials”. 

In 2008 novel equipment was installed including an ICP for chemical analysis and a high 

resolution fluorescence spectrometer (Fluorolog-3, Horiba Jobin Yvon) for optical property 

analysis. International cooperation was intensified and new cooperation was started with 

the Northwestern Polytechnical University Xian, China, Professor X.W. Yin, on fibre reinforce 

composite ceramics and the Institute of Metals Research, Laboratory of Materials 

Science, Shenyang, China, Professor Zhou, on MAX nano-laminate composites.

New Professor – Dr. Lothar Wondraczek 

Professor Lothar Wondraczek has been appointed head of the glass group at the Institute 

by April 1st, 2008. Lothar Wondraczek (* 1978, Jena) received his diploma and master 

degrees from Clausthal University of Technology, Clausthal-Zellerfel before moving as a 

Senior Research Scientist to the Corning European Technology Center, Corning S.A.S. in 

Avon Fontainebleau, France. There, his work focused on R&D of nanocrystalline glass 

ceramics for various applications. In Erlangen, he will concentrate on four fields: (1) glasslight-interactions 

and the use of glasses for the conversion of light; (2) novel methods for 

energy-efficient glass production; (3) mechanical properties of glasses and glass ceramics; 

and (4) thermophysical aspects of the glass transition. In its first year, the Erlangen Glass 

Group has grown to one PhD student and two PostDoc researchers.

Teaching 

The Department of Materials Science and Engineering offers a Bachelor and a Master programme. 

The bachelor course is a three years programme (six semesters) which qualifies 

for the master programme (1.5 years). 

The curriculum consists of the "Grundstudium" during the first 2 years, devoted to the fundamental 

scientific education. In addition it introduces the student very early into materials 

science and engineering concepts by offering courses on materials structures, properties, 

thermodynamics, kinetics, chemistry, processing, conversion into products, analysis and 

testing as well as practical training. Examinations follow immediately after each semester. 

The subsequent advanced programme in the 5 th and 6 th semester broadly deepens the entire 

field of materials science and engineering. The student can select a "Technisches Schwerpunktfach" 

(special technical discipline) which offers the possibility of specialisation. 

Courses on economics, management and other soft skills are obligatory. This period ends 

with a Bachelor Thesis of nine weeks duration. 

The master programme in the 7 th and 8 th semester is devoted to specialisation in a selected 

"Kernfach" (core discipline), including corresponding seminars. The student has to choose 

an additional "Wahlfach", which can be any subject offered by the university, if it bears 

reasonable relation to the study programme. The examinations of this part are taken at the 

end of the 8 th semester. Finally, this is followed by a Master Thesis of six months. 

In addition to this material science and engineering programme, we are involved in the 

new study programme “Nanotechnology” of the Department of Materials Science and Engineering, 

as well as in the new bachelor programme “Energy Technology”.

Elite Master Course "Advanced Materials and Processes" 

The Institute of Glass and Ceramics offers lectures and practical work to the Elite Master 

Course “Advanced Materials and Processes”. Organised in co-operation between the Department 

of Materials Science and the Department of Chemical- and Bioengineering this 

new Master programme started in WS 2005/06. Excellent students may attend a three semester 

programme which involves a curriculum 30 % more than in the common Master 

programme in Materials Science or in Chemical- and Bioengineering. In the first semester 

basics in the fields of chemical- and bioengineering and in materials science are offered. In 

the second and third semesters two out of four core subjects have to be selected: i) nanomaterials 

and nanoprocesses, ii) material and process simulation, iii) advanced processes 

and iv) biomaterials and bioprocesses. In the field of biomaterials the following lectures 

are offered to the programme by the Institute of Glass and Ceramics: 

- Introduction into Biomaterials: P. Greil 

- Ceramic Materials in Medicine: F. Müller 

- Biomimetic Materials and Processes: C. Zollfrank

Workshops 

1 st Advanced Training Course on „Tape Casting and Ceramic Multilayer 

Technology” (02/2008) 

The ceramic multilayer technology which starts from cast green tapes offers a number of 

opportunities for the manufacture of miniaturized and high integrated parts, for the development 

of layered composite materials as well as complex 3D shapes. The aim of the training 

course was to explain and demonstrate the manufacture of green tapes and to depict the 

interrelation between the characteristics of this green tape and the practicability of subsequent 

processing steps like punching, metallization, stacking, lamination, binder burn out 

and sintering. The technique is already applied in the manufacture of large volume products 

like, e.g., capacitors, gas sensors and high integrated multilayer circuits.

1 st International Workshop on Glass and Entropy (06/2008) 

The idea to organise an international workshop dedicated to glass and entropy was born 

during the session “Thermodynamics, Rheology, and Glass Transition” held at the XXI st 

International Congress on Glass, Strasbourg 2007. In this most interesting session, controversial 

viewpoints and opinions on the entropy of the glassy state clashed and led to a 

highly emotional scientific debate. Since then, none of the controversial issues could be 

resolved in a satisfactory way, and more and more researchers from different fields (glass 

and polymer sciences, statistical mechanics, computational simulation) agreed that there is 

a need to meet within the frame of a workshop specifically dedicated to glass and its entropy. 

Representatives from Corning’s European Technology Center, Avon, France spontaneously 

opted to sponsor such a workshop, and Lothar Wondraczek and Reinhard Conradt 

agreed to organise and chair it. The workshop was endorsed by the newly founded 

Technical Committee 08 “Relaxation Phenomena in Glasses” of the International Commission 

on Glass and supported locally by the Slovak Glass Society. It was held at Trencin, 

Slovak Republic, from June 25 to 27, 2008 and attracted contributions from 38 outstanding 

scientists. Most of these contributions are presently in print as a special volume of the 

Journal of Non-Crystalline Solids, edited by L. Wondraczek and R. Conradt.
