Electron microscopes allow an unmatched insight into smallest structures. Regarding the image resolution, they outcompete light microscopes by a factor of more than 1000. They do so by using a beam of electrons instead of light rays to probe the samples.

The heaviest part of a high-end camera is the objective, made from heavy glass. In today’s smartphone camera, you find mini versions of the same, with drastically reduced weight and consumption of space. But this is nothing compared to so-called flat optics, a cutting-edge research field in photonics.

QuCoLiMa’s Female Scientists is a program inspired by the corresponding program of the German Physical Society. Here, we will highlight female scientists of QuCoLiMa and their field of research in order to contribute to “fixing the leaky pipeline“ (less female professors than students in the natural...

The summer 2022 program of the QuCoLiMaTalks is now online. The QuCoLiMaTalks take place, unless otherwise noted, Tuesdays during the semester at 12:00. With the summer semester, we would like to pass over to a format of the QuCoLiMa Talks as originally planned in the application of the TRR, ...

The first school QuCoLiMa Basics has been held at the University of Mainz from 03. – 07.04.2022. The school included introductory lectures to Quantum Optics, interactive sessions, a poster session, a town visit, lab visits and many interesting discussions! Abstract: QuCoLiMa is a collaboration...

At this year's DPG spring meeting, the TRR 306 QuCoLiMa is organizing a Symposium on “Quantum Cooperativity of Light and Matter” (SYQC). The symposium will consist of two sessions of 2h each: Thursday, 17.03.2022: 10:30 - 12:30 & 14:00 - 16:00 Abstract: Cooperative behavior is ubiquitou...

At the invitation of the journal Physical Review, the Cooperative Quantum Phenomena group led by Claudiu Genes at the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light, has provided an hands-on tutorial aimed at training young researchers in theoretical aspects necessary to partake in the rapidly evolvi...

Within the initiatives of QuCoLiMa for gender and diversity, the Saarbrücken team and the team of the “Gleichstellungsbüro” at Saarland University organize an online “Interactive Talk” on The Unconscious Bias (identify unconscious thought patterns and stereotypes and raise awareness of diversity...

Looking forward to a fruitful cooperativity! All the best from QuCoLiMa!
