Functionalities are at the heart of the cluster of excellence „CUI: Advanced Imaging of Matter“. Atoms bind together and form solids, molecules interact and react - new functionalities emerge with increasing complexity and growing system size. 160 scientists from different disciplines such as physics, chemistry, and structural biology have joined forces to observe, understand, and control these processes. Thereby teams of Universität Hamburg cooperate with scientists of the Deutsche Elektronen-Synchrotron (DESY), the Max Planck Institute for the Structure and Dynamics of Matter (MPSD), and the European XFEL GmbH (XFEL).

New paths for surface research

Researchers from Universität Hamburg, the European XFEL and DESY have succeeded in establishing time-resolved orbital tomography at the free-electron laser (FEL). The team reports in the research journal Nature Communications on the new method, which makes it possible to observe the temporal change of the wave function of...

Machine learning enables counting of magnetic skyrmions

Researchers from the Department of Physics have succeeded in training artificial neural networks to reconstruct the skyrmion number in confined geometries. In the journal Physical Review Applied, they report how the topological charge can be determined from a time-averaged measurement in this way. The results are of...

For the freedom of science

100 years ago, the "Notgemeinschaft der Deutschen Wissenschaft" was founded - later it became the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG). It finances research projects that "arise purely from the needs of science itself and make possible what is embodied in the Basic Law: the freedom of science". The Cluster "CUI: Advanced Imaging of Matter" is funded by DFG within the Excellence Strategy of the Federal and State Governments. www.dfg2020.de/en
