"Quantum coherent control in pulsed waveguide optomechanics" by Junyin Zhang, Changlong Zhu, Christian Wolff, and Birgit Stiller

Abstract:

Coherent control of traveling acoustic…

The Workshop „Quantum Optics meets Acoustics” was held from 14th to 18th of November 2022 at the Lorentz-Center in Leiden, Netherlands, organized by Wolfgang Löffler (Leiden University), Simon Gröblacher (TU Delft) and Birgit Stiller (MPL).

Scientists at the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light have managed for the first time to create a unidirectional device that significantly increases the quality of a special class of transmitted signals in optical communications: optical vortices. By transmitting selective optical vortex…

Read about optoacoustics in different thermodynamic phases in toxic liquids and the interesting regime of negative pressure here!

Abstract:

Examining the physical properties of materials - particularly of toxic liquids - under a wide range of thermodynamic states is a challenging problem due to…

2022 - 100 years of Brillouin-Mandelstam scattering!

That is why many researchers in the community have teamed up to publish a series of two books on fundamentals and applications of Brillouin-Mandelstam scattering edited by Benjamin J. Eggleton, Michael J. Steel, and Christopher G. Poulton.

Our…

We would like to welcome Jesús Marinesco (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology) and Rajkumar Jadhav (from Indian Institute of Science Education and Research) to our group!

Rajkumar started his PhD on our new EU-Project PALANTIRI together with Prof. Silvia Viola Kusminskiy. Jesús works towards his…
