- NOMAD CAMELS version 1.0 released23. February 2024NOMAD CAMELS is a new open-source software developed at the Chair of Applied Physics that generates future-oriented research data in line with the FAIR principles in a simple way during experiments. FAIR stands for Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable, which are key criteria for the subsequent re-use of data. With...
- Largest catalog of high-energy cosmic sources published2. February 2024Star corpses, jets of matter and white dwarfs Supernova remnants, black holes, neutron stars and the hot interstellar gas of the Milky Way and other galaxies – the sky is full of sources that emit X-rays. Researchers at the Dr. Karl Remeis Observatory – Astronomical Institute of the Erlangen Centre...
- Reflections without mirroring31. January 2024Physicists at MPL and FAU develop novel concept for detecting chiral molecules In contrast to conventional mirrors, light can be reflected on surfaces known as meta surfaces without changing its polarization. This has now been proven by physicists at Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) and the Max Planck Institute for the Science...
- Cooperation promotes new findings26. January 2024In science, the exchange of ideas and resources between researchers from different disciplines forms the foundation for progress and innovation. Cooperation not only increases efficiency, but also promotes new findings. This is why the FAU Profile Center Light.Matter.QuantumTechnologies (LMQ) supports several high-ranking projects between LMQ members and researchers at the...
- Symposium Silicon Carbide as Quantum-Classical Platform – 75th Anniversary of the Chair of Applied Physics17. August 2023Silicon carbide (SiC) has developed into a high-performance semiconductor technology in recent years. This goes hand in hand with excellent monocrystalline wafer material and continuously improving process technology as well as understanding of SiC’s fundamental material and device physics. However, SiC and its derived materials, epitaxial graphene and SiC’s point...
