Congratulations! Siegfried Weisenburger wins young reseacher award for an outstanding PhD. thesis of Deutsche Gesellschaft für angewandte Optik (DGaO) with his PhD. thesis on Cryogenic Super-Resolution Fluorescence Microscopy.

Physicists in many research areas aim to realize efficient devices that can generate intricate quantum states and perform complex operations. Considering that photons are ideal carriers of quantum information while material entities are advantageous for switching and storage, the efficient…

Semiconductor quantum dots (Q-dots) are desirable in many applications because they can emit multiple photons for each excitation pulse via the generation of multiple excitons. In practice, however, multi excitonic emissions are hampered by fast non radiative decay-channels such as Auger…
