“Subcycle anatomy of quantum materials” ( Prof. Rupert Huber)

  • Wednesday 15:00!
  • Date: Jan 21, 2026
  • Time: 03:00 PM (Local Time Germany)
  • Speaker: Prof. Rupert Huber
  • Universität Regensburg
  • Location: Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics, Hans-Kopferman-Straße 1, 85748 Garching
  • Room: Herbert Walther Lecture Hall
Lightwave electronics has revolutionized our way to control materials. The key idea is to utilize the carrier field of intense light as an alternating voltage to accelerate electrons faster than an optical cycle. On subcycle time scales, electrons can move ballistically without scattering, even in solids, unleashing a fascinating coherent quantum world full of promise for future quantum technologies. [more]

“Physical Devices that Learn” (Prof. Florian Marquardt)
