Trust in Science.

Last week Fabian defended his Master thesis in our group Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light. Congratulations Fabian! 🥳

We had long day full of interesting talks at our joint retreat with Genes Research Group MPL and we were rewarded with a beautiful sunset :)

We took the opportunity of our retreat to take a new group picture!

Some exciting news: as of January, Silvia joined the faculty RWTH Aachen Aachen. Making honor to its name, our group will function in a hybrid mode between Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light and RWTH Aachen during 2022 😄

Our preprint on magnomechanical transduction is out: arxiv.org/abs/2205.05088. Congratulations Fabian Engelhardt for his first manuscript submission! 🥳 Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light

Birgit Stiller and Silvia Viola Kusminskiy, group leaders at Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light, are working towards making long-distance #quantumcommunication and wireless communication more efficient as part of an EU Pathfinder research project.

Martijn Dols put today on arXiv an article on how one can use magnons to produce quantum gates, and how efficient these gates are, by Viola Kusminskiy Group with my participation - I was happy to host Martijn for three months last fall: arxiv.org/abs/2406.14967
