#MayThe4thBeWithYou – Happy #StarWarsDay!
While lightsabers remain firmly rooted in the realm of science fiction, MPL’s scientists are researching light and its interaction with matter. In this context, light serves as both a tool and a subject of #research. Our basic research ranges from individual photons over application and development of super-resolution microscopes to experiments involving high-intensity #laser pulses.
May the (laser) force be with you!

#Research Group Birgit Stiller “#Quantum Optoacoustics”
Light and sound can interact in optical fibers, enabling applications ranging from photonic machine learning to #QuantumTechnologies.
A prerequisite for interactions in the quantum regime is the so-called strong coupling regime. MPL scientists have predicted and measured it in an optical fiber. This paves the way for in-line quantum signal processing.

UT researchers have demonstrated ultra-pure radio signals on a photonic chip by strengthening light–sound interaction more than 200x, addressing a long-standing challenge in integrated photonics.
At the centre of the work: a phenomenon the researchers describe as “mini-earthquakes”—surface acoustic waves that travel along the chip and enable a more efficient coupling between optical and acoustic signals.

A supersolid is an exotic #quantum state of matter that simultaneously exhibits the ordered, crystal-like spatial structure of a solid and the frictionless flow of a superfluid. Researchers have successfully generated this state at room temperature by engineering light-matter interactions within a nanoscale device.

Closing ceremony of the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology (#IYQ2025)
In February, the IYQ concluded with a ceremony. The global initiative highlighted the impact of #QuantumScience and technology, marking 100 years since the foundations of #quantum mechanics were established.
Gerd Leuchs, Emeritus Director at MPL, attended the ceremony. He is a long-standing member of the international #optics and #photonics community.

A type of quantum logic gate that processes information using qudits—particles capable of existing in four or more quantum states simultaneously—rather than traditional binary qubits. This advancement exponentially expands computational capacity by encoding multiple dimensions of data into a single photon pair.

I made public today the repository of #cRCWA, a simulation software dedicated to #photonics. It can be used with diffraction gratings, photonic crystals, as other implementations of the #RCWA method. It can also provide PML for nonperiodic structures like optical #waveguides and handle bent structures. Written in C++, it can be used with a simple scripting language or as a module in larger Python scripts. Here it is: https://github.com/cRCWA/cRCWA #OpenSource #Physics #OpenScience
