An ERC Advanced Grant, which comes with third-party funding of up to 2.5 million euros, has just been awarded to Professor Hommelhoff -- a great success, not only because of the large amount of money raised, which will be available for research at the chair over five years, but also because this fun...

This is a great success for Prof. Martin Hundhausen, senior academic councillor in our institute: He has just been elected to the Erlangen city council. Congratulations -- and good luck for the city politics with lots of physical expertise!

Prof. Dr. Lothar Ley, who held this chair until not too many years ago, has been named an "outstanding referee" by the American Physical Society APS - a distinction that highlights his particularly great and helpful commitment in the review process of the journals published by APS. Amongst these are...

Congratulations to DR. Christian Heide on defending his thesis --  with distinction!

Controlling electrons with optical fields of few-cycle laser pulses opens an avenue to coherently manipulate electron trajectories inside of materials. This control gives access to rich physics such as quantum path interference and topological effects . Recently we could experimentally demonstrate ...
