Nichtlineare Optik

The group’s research is focused on fundamentals and applications of nonlinear and quantum optical phenomena in a great variety of new and innovative materials, e.g. semiconductor quantum dots, sub-monolayer grown quantum structures, colloidal nanospheres, nanorods and nanoplatelets, hybrid 0D-2D structures, complex materials of metallic, magnetic and dielectric nanostructures, silicon-based materials, optical fibers, doped laser crystals, organic molecules etc.
