The European FET-OPEN COSMICS project, of which the MPQ laboratory (resp. Amandine Bellec) is one of the 6 partners, has developed a short movie presenting molecular spintronics and the challenges of the project. The project is based on a collaboration between...
Researchers of the DON team at MPQ lab have obtained the first dielectric optical metasurface generating second harmonic with full phase control. Figure: SEM image of a Fresnel lens designed to focus a second-harmonic signal. Thanks to this breakthrough, they achieved...
High-dimensional entangled states of light provide novel possibilities for quantum information, from fundamental tests of quantum mechanics to enhanced computation and communication protocols. In this context, the frequency degree of freedom combines the assets of...
Graphene is a two dimensional, material made of a carbon atomic plane, with exceptional physical properties that make it full of promises for applications in various fields. The realization of new functionalities for advanced devices is highly desirable and can be...
Faced with the technological and societal challenges represented by the storage, transfer and processing of computer data, electronic devices exploiting the quantum nature of electrons have been integrated for many years in the computers, smartphones and other...
The synthesis of nanomaterials by chemical routes has long been developed empirically due to the lack of techniques to probe the dynamics of nano-objects in liquid media. In recent years, so-called “in-situ” approaches have emerged on all the techniques...
