We join the new research unit OPTIMAL!
We are very happy to be part of OPTIMAL, a newly funded "Forschungsgruppe" aiming to achieve optical control of quantum materials. This highly collaborative effort brings together theorists and experimentalists from Germany, the United States, and Switzerland. We look forward to contributing our expertise and pushing the boundaries of quantum materials research.

Matteo Russo and Anton Trenczek join the team!
Matteo arrived at the beginning of March and is now officially supported as a visiting scientist from the TRR 227 consortium (thank you for the support!). Matteo holds a BSc and MSc in physics from Sapienza University of Rome. For his MSc thesis he studied the local structure of two different classes of zirconium-based superconductors as a function of temperature using X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy techniques. Anton is joining us as the first MSc student of the group. He grew up in Berlin and completed his BSc in physics at the FU. Welcome Matteo and Anton and let's have fun building and measuring!
