The Shoulders-Gray-Spindt (SGS) Prize is awarded in the name of the founders of the International Vacuum Nanoelectronics Conference (IVNC) to promote young scientists in the field of vacuum nanoelectronics. We are delighted that Leon Brückner has received the endowed prize for a publication on “Cohe...

Dielectric laser accelerators have so far been operated with lasers in the near-infrared range. Using a longer wavelength should allow higher electron transmission and a higher damage threshold. In a cooperation with the university and the Fraunhofer Institute in Jena, we are demonstrating accelerat...

Our postdoc Zhexin Zhao received a highly prestigous Humboldt Research Scholarship to continue her work as a postdoc here with us -- warmest congratulations! Well deserved.

CERN Courier published an article covering the history of on-chip accelerators using silicon-based structures illuminated by lasers. These dielectric laser accelerators (DLAs) promise powerful, high-energy, high-repetition-rate particle sources suitable for applications in medical facilities and qua...
