|---|---|
 |
Quantum network infrastructure based on solid‑state systems. Our research comprises both the investigation and optimization of fundamental aspects of these structures—such as the interaction of individual spins with the semiconductor environment—and their application in quantum communication, for example by distributing single photons for quantum cryptography or entangled states for establishing quantum networks. |
| Group of Prof. Nienhaus | |
 |
Investigation of biological Processes on molecular level in live cells, tissues and organisms; development of new techniques of light microscopy with highest space and time resolution as well as methods of specific fluorescence labeling of biomolecules and cellular structures |
| Group of Prof. Schimmel | |
 |
Nano-physics and fundamentals of nano-technology. Focussing on the development of new methods of nano structuring; nano-electronics and atomic electronics on the basis of the developed single-atom transistor; material research on the nano-scale in particular with scanning probe microscopy |
| Group of Prof. Wegener | |
 |
Design and fabrication (electron-beam lithography, direct laser writing, holography) and characterization of 3D photonic crystals and meta-materials. Linear and non-linear, near-field optical and femtosecond spectroscopy. Optical near-field microscopy in biologic systems (e.g. pores on cellular membranes) |
