Research on solar lasers at MPL receives funding from Europe-wide APACE project
Dr. Hanieh Fattahi, independent leader of the research group “Femtosecond Fieldoscopy”, and her team at the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light in Erlangen are aiming to develop a new type of solar laser. The bio-inspired sunlight-pumped laser, based on photosynthetic-complexes is capable…
New insights into the interaction of femtosecond lasers with living tissue
Nonlinear light microscopy has revolutionized our ability to observe and understand complex biological processes. However, light can also damage living matter. Yet, the mechanism behind the irreversible perturbation of cellular processes by intense light remains poorly understood. To address this…
Speeding up spectroscopic analysis
Ultrafast laser spectroscopy allows the ascertainment of dynamics over extremely short time scales, making it a very useful tool in many scientific and industrial applications. A major disadvantage is the considerable measuring time this technique usually requires, which often leads to lengthy…
