Research Highlights

Zero electrical resistance at room temperature? A material with this property, i.e. a room temperature superconductor, could revolutionize power...

In recent years two-dimensional quantum materials have provided a platform for the realization of novel correlated and topological phases of matter...

Magnetic materials have been a mainstay in computing technology due to their ability to permanently store information in their magnetic state. Current...

Semiconductors play an important role in electronics, optoelectronics or photovoltaics. But like other solids they are quantum many-particle systems...

X-ray lasers can reveal the spatial structures of biomolecules that are hard to come by with other methods. However, the intense X-ray flashes...

X-ray single particle imaging (SPI) is a technique where the very bright X-ray pulses produced by XFEs are used to image single particles. When the...

Imaging the structure of a molecule and capturing its dynamics during a chemical reaction with atomic resolution and in real time is one of the holy...

With the help of a special “light compressor”, a team of researchers has produced ultrashort laser pulses at DESY. In collaboration with scientist...

Review by 18 leading researchers from 16 institutions in Science Advances demonstrates that inter-exciton coherences are too short-lived to have any...
