On-Chip Ferromagnetic Resonance for van der Waals Heterostructures: Anisotropy and Damping of Cobalt Interfaced with Exfoliated 2D Materials

Oct 19, 2025 | MPQ, TELEM

A collaboration between the technical hub, the clean room platform and the TELEM group at MPQ laboratory has developped a new experiment demonstrating that standard broadband ferromagnetic resonance can still be effective to probe the magnetization dynamics of “thin...

Materials science – When the surface reaches deep inside…

Oct 19, 2025 | MPQ, STM

Crystalline surfaces often exhibit reconstructions, usually assumed to affect only a few atomic layers below the surface. A collaborative study (conducted by the Matériaux et Phénomènes Quantiqueslaboratory in Paris, the Institut P’ in Poitiers, and the SixS beamline...

Emergent Equilibrium in All-Optical Single Quantum-Trajectory Ising Machines

Jun 19, 2025 | MPQ, THEORIE

A collaboration between the Theory group at MPQ, CREF Rome, and Sapienza University of Rome has shown that multimode all-optical systems driven by two-photon processes can reach thermal equilibrium at the level of single quantum trajectories. The study is published in...

Cavity-enhanced fractional quantum Hall phases and cavity-modified spin splittings

Jun 2, 2025 | MPQ, THEORIE

A collaboration between the Equipe Théorie at MPQ and scientists from ETH Zurich and the Flatiron Institute has demonstrated, both theoretically and experimentally, that giant vacuum fields confined in a split-ring resonator cavity can profoundly alter...

Unravelling the nonlinear generation of designer vortices with dielectric metasurfaces

Jan 23, 2025 | DON, MPQ

Researchers from the DON team have demonstrated and analyzed the generation of high-purity second-harmonic vortices with dielectric metasurfaces. These results are published in Light: Science and Applications. Vortex beams are currently drawing a great deal of...
