Manipulating collective motions of electrons and solvent molecules in a polar liquid  
An electron and the surrounding cloud of solvent dipoles couple through electric forces and can undergo joint collective motions. Such many-body excitations in the terahertz (THz) frequency range are…  
The Max Born Institute congratulates Anne L’Huillier, Pierre Agostini and Ferenc Krausz on receiving the 2023 Physics Nobel Prize!  
The 2023 Physics Nobel Prize has been awarded to Anne L’Huillier, Pierre Agostini and Ferenc Krausz “for experimental methods that generate attosecond pulses of light for the study of electron…  
Freie Universität Berlin has appointed Dr. Sangeeta Sharma as professor in the field of "Theoretical Solid State Physics" on June 26, 2023, in a joint appointment with the Max Born Institute.  
We are delighted to announce that on June 26, 2023, Dr. Sangeeta Sharma has been installed as a professor at the FU Berlin, in a joint appointment with the Max Born Institute.  
A new dynamic probe of electric forces between molecules  
Molecules in water and other polar media are subject to strong electric forces. Such forces originate from their liquid environment, which at ambient temperature undergoes ultrafast structural…  
Symmetry breaking by ultrashort light pulses opens new quantum pathways for coherent phonons  
Atoms in a crystal form a regular lattice, in which they can move over small distances from their equilibrium positions. Such phonon excitations are represented by quantum states. A superposition of…  
Laser light hybrids control giant currents at ultrafast times  
The flow of matter, from macroscopic water currents to the microscopic flow of electric charge, underpins much of the infrastructure of modern times. In the search for breakthroughs in energy…  
Looking at magnets in the right light  
Unlocking the secrets of magnetic materials requires the right illumination. Magnetic x-ray circular dichroism makes it possible to decode magnetic order in nanostructures and to assign it to…  
A Window into the Nanoworld: Scientists Develop New Technique to Image Fluctuations in Materials  
A team of scientists, led by researchers from the Max Born Institute in Berlin and Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin in Germany and from Brookhaven National Laboratory and the Massachusetts Institute of…  
Under pressure – A quantum material reacts to light  
The direct observation of the emergence of a new phase in a solid is the analog to the much-discussed molecular movie of a chemical reaction. Now, an international team of researchers has…  
Statement on the collaboration of an MBI researcher with north-Korean scientists  
Statement of the Max-Born Institute for Nonlinear Optics and Short-Pulse Spectroscopy (MBI) on the report of "Deutsche Welle" from Nov 28th 2022 on the collaboration of an MBI researcher with…
