Since 2005 the FAU  awards the Renate Wittern Sterzel Prize annually. The prize is named after the first FAU women's representative who founded the equality prize. Innovative projects to promote equality, exemplary measures to constructively deal with and promote diversity and outstanding succes...

FAU team of researchers succeed for the first time in accelerating electrons using a nano device Particle accelerators are crucial tools in a wide variety of areas in industry, research and the medical sector. The space these machines require ranges from a few square meters to large research center...

New in Erlangen: panOPTICUM – getting to grips with research Using targeted thermal radiation to make popcorn pop, discovering everyday objects from a completely new perspective under the microscope or using lasers to make lights dance – all of these involve optics. At various interactive stands, t...

Last week, the International Conference on Quantum Cooperativity of Light and Matter took place at the Physics department in Erlangen. After a warm welcome by Prof. Dr. Joachim von Zanthier (speaker of TRR 306 QuCoLiMa), Prof. Dr. Kai Phillip Schmidt (speaker of FAU Profile Center Light.Matter.Qu...

Neutrino Research and Non-Hermitian Topological Phenomena. Grants from the European Research Council (ERC; Europäischer Forschungsrat) are highly competitive. Receiving them not only gives new impetus to the research of the awarded scientists through the high funding sums of up to 1.5 million euros...

Recently published experiments with inelastic neutron scattering in Nature Physics (Nature Physics 13, 638 (2017)) have identified the amplitude or Higgs excitation in the two-dimensional quantum magnet C9H18N2CuBr4, i.e. a quantum material of coupled spin ladders with weak Easy-Axis spin anisotropy...

Two letters from Erlangen physics groups have made it into the february issue of the journal Nature Physics. This is extremely exceptional as letter contributions are quite rarely in the highly renowned journal (total number of 6 in this issue). The contribution entitled "Quantum imaging with incohe...

The Autumn Academy is intended to introduce BSc and MSc students to the fast moving field of optical science including topics such as quantum information processing, metamaterials, nano-optics, photonic crystal fibres, nonlinear optics, imaging and sensing.
