In a breakthrough that could revolutionise biomarker detection, researcher Hanieh Fattahi and her group at the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light have developed a novel technique called…
Atomically thin, two-dimensional semiconductors are widely used to create platforms for the investigation of physical phenomena like superconductivity. In order to build suitable structures, single-layer materials are stacked on top…
Recent results published in Nature Communications, bring researchers closer to being technologically able to harvest some of the unique properties of systems falling in a hybrid quantum state of both…
Soot particles originate from incomplete combustion, for example in engines or wildland fires, and pose a pollutant harmful to human health and significantly contributing to climate change. In their recent…
In a recent publication, Dr. Shuangyou Zhang, Toby Bi, and Dr. Pascal Del’Haye from the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light have developed an innovative broadband spectroscopy method…
We are happy to announce a talk next Wednesday, 23.10., 13:00-14:00 at the Institute of Applied Quantum Technologies (AQuT), entitled „Spin Defects in hexagonal Boron Nitride for Sensing Applications“. The…
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…
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…
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…
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…
