Few-cycle pulses break the 300 W barrier  
A team led by researchers from the Max Born Institute for Nonlinear Optics and Short Pulse Spectroscopy (MBI), Laser-Laboratorium Göttingen (LLG) and Active Fiber Systems (AFS) has generated…  
Let there be… a new light: scientists synthesized light with new intrinsic chirality to tell mirror molecules apart  
Light is the fastest way to distinguish right- and left-handed chiral molecules, which has important applications in chemistry and biology. However, ordinary light only weakly senses molecular…  
Forward or backward? New pathways for protons in water or methanol  
A collaborative ultrafast spectroscopy and ab initio molecular dynamics simulations study, as recently published by scientists of the Max Born Institute of Nonlinear Optics and Short Pulse…  
Spying on topology: an ultra-fast optical way to extract critical information from quantum materials  
Topological insulators are quantum materials, which, due to their exotic electronic structure, on surfaces and edges conduct electric current like metal, while acting as an insulator in bulk.…  
Light wave dynamic control of spins  
OISTR, the fastest mechanism for coherent control of spins with light in multi-sublattice systems, could now be tested experimentally by  manipulating the magnetic properties of multi-layers on…  
Accurate Probing of Magnetism with Light  
Probing magnetic materials with extreme ultraviolet radiation allows to obtain a detailed microscopic picture of how magnetic systems interact with light - the fastest way to manipulate a magnetic…  
Laser-driven Spin Dynamics in Ferrimagnets: How does the Angular Momentum flow?  
When exposed to intense laser pulses, the magnetization of a material can be manipulated very fast. Fundamentally, magnetization is connected to the angular momentum of the electrons in the material.…
