Concepts for new switchable plasmonic nanodevices: a magneto-plasmonic nanoscale router and a high-contrast magneto-plasmonic disk modulator controlled by external magnetic fields  
Plasmonic waveguides open the possibility to develop dramatically miniaturized optical devices and provide a promising route towards the next-generation of integrated nanophotonic circuits for…  
Benjamin Fingerhut receives the ERC Starting Grant  
Dr. Benjamin Fingerhut, junior group leader at the Max Born Institute (MBI), is recipient of the prestigious ERC Starting Grant 2018. The project addresses ultrafast biomolecular dynamics via a…  
What happens when we heat the atomic lattice of a magnet all of a sudden?  
Magnets have fascinated humans for several thousand years and enabled the age of digital data storage. They occur in various flavors. Ferrimagnets form the largest class of magnets and consist of two…  
Daniela Rupp is awarded the Karl-Scheel-Prize 2018  
The PGzB, the Physical Society of  Berlin, has awarded the Karl-Scheel-Prize 2018 to Daniela Rupp, MBI, recognizing her work in the fields of high-intensity x-ray pulse interaction with matter…  
Dr. Federico Furch named 2018 OSA Ambassador  
In October of 2017 the Optical Society (OSA) announced the 2018 class of OSA Ambassadors. One member of this class is MBI researcher Dr. Federico Furch, who in the last few years has been responsible…  
Picture of atomic orbitals featured in NOVA/PBS documentary  
Pictures of atomic hydrogen orbitals measured by MBI researchers are featured in a new NOVA/PBS documentary (see link). In the video, it is explained how the two-dimensional wavefunction of a…  
X-Ray Holography reveals Nano-Patchwork during Phase Transition in Vanadium Dioxide  
In the prototypical material VO2, the role of electronic correlation in the phase transition between the insulating and metallic phase have long been debated. Combining spectroscopy and holography…  
Laser-driven electron recollision remembers molecular orbital structure  
Scientists from the Max Born Institute for Nonlinear Optics and Short Pulse Spectroscopy (MBI) in Berlin combined state-of-the-art experiments and numerical simulations to test a fundamental…  
From insulator to conductor in a flash  
A clever combination of novel technologies enables us to study promising materials for the electronics of tomorrow. Over the past decades, computers have become faster and faster and hard disks and…  
Freeing electrons to better trap them  
For the first time, researchers from UNIGE and MBI in Berlin have placed an electron in a dual state - neither freed nor bound - thus confirming a hypothesis from the 1970s. Atoms are composed of…
