The ERC Synergy project Unravelling the Mysteries of Vibrational Strong Coupling (UnMySt) officially began with a two-day kick-off meeting hosted at the Institut de Science et d’Ingénierie Supramoléculaires (ISIS) in Strasbourg. Bringing together all participating research groups from Tel Aviv University, Université de Strasbourg, the University of Pennsylvania and the Max Planck Institute for the Structure and Dynamics of Matter, the meeting marked the beginning of a six-year collaboration at the forefront of chemistry, quantum electrodynamics, and materials science. more

Scientists uncover how electrons self-organize into crystalline patterns—and melt—inside atomically twisted 2D materials. more

Researchers at the Max Planck Institute for the Structure and Dynamics of Matter (MPSD) in collaboration with DTU Electro, the University of Sheffield and the University of Copenhagen, have proposed a novel method for efficiently generating single photons in the mid-infrared (MIR) range. This theoretical breakthrough, published in Science Advances, has the potential to revolutionize quantum technologies by enabling new applications in molecular sensing, precision metrology, and quantum communication. more
