Who We Are
We study ultrafast phenomena in quantum materials. A strong focus lies on the angular momentum of electrons (spin+orbit) and of the crystal lattice, as well as on the ultrafast control of magnetic order. The associated processes often coincide with the femtosecond time scale and, thus, terahertz frequency scale. To study such extremely fast dynamics, we develop novel tools, such as ultrafast ampere-meters, ohm-meters and strong terahertz voltage sources. They greatly rely on femtosecond optical pulses in the visible, infrared and terahertz spectral range. To better understand our experimental results, we work out simple theoretical models. Our fundamental scientific insights are relevant for applications in information technology where bit rates are approaching the terahertz range. We also explore our results directly for applications in terahertz photonics, including the development of novel emitters, detectors and modulators of broadband terahertz radiation.
