An international team of scientists has unraveled the light-induced electron-localization dynamics in transition metals on the attosecond timescale. The team investigated for the first time the many-body electron dynamics in transition metals before thermalization sets in. more

Scientists from the United States, Germany and Japan explain how the electronic structure in twisted bilayer graphene (TBLG) influences the emergence of the insulating state in these systems, which is the precursor to superconductivity in high-Tc materials. more

Researchers uncover how quantum fluctuations can be used to restore the fundamental symmetry of the electronic motions in crystals affected by magnetic fields. more

Controlling the quantum properties of materials is a central challenge in physics as well as an essential step towards using quantum physics for applications or building scalable quantum computers. more

Scientists from DESY, the MPSD, the University of Hamburg and the CUI Cluster of Excellence create high-order harmonics from solids with controlled polarization states, taking advantage of both crystal symmetry and attosecond electronic dynamics. more
