From 5th to 7th November, the DIPHER24 conference will take place at Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU). The registration is now open. DIPHER 24 continues the legacy of fostering inclusivity and advancing…
Light emitting diodes (LEDs) provide an efficient way to convert electrical to optical power. Aluminum gallium nitride (AlGaN) LEDs produce ultraviolet (UV) radiation and will improve environmental, medical and industrial…
We are happy to announce a talk next Tuesday, 01.10., 13:00-14:00 at the Institute of Applied Quantum Technologies, entitled „Quantum technology with spins and photons“. The talk will be held…
The increasing size of neural networks for deep learning applications and their energy consumption create a need for alternative neuromorphic approaches, for example, using optics. In their work, Clara Wanjura…
Dr. Tobias Weitz from the chair of Laser Physics in the physics department has been awarded the 2nd prize from the Körber Foundation for his dissertation. As part of his…
The FAU Profile Center Light.Matter.QuantumTechnologies will be further strengthened by two new members Pascal Del’Haye, MPI for the Science of Light, Claudiu Genes, MPI for the Science of Light. A…
The interaction between light and matter is one of the oldest research areas of quantum mechanics, and a field that just keeps on delivering new insights and applications. With the…
EELISA at FAU has opened a second Call for EELISA Research Retreats funded by the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD). The aim is to facilitate new European research collaborations with…
Spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) – the splitting of a single photon in two – is crucial for photonic quantum technologies. In its very essence, SPDC breaks the inversion symmetry. It…
The terms “Wenz”, “Solo” and “Sie” are as much part of a Bavarian pub as the beer tap and the regulars’ table. It’s where you’ll often see groups of (usually)…
