Current research projects

Our research group is currently working among other things on the following projects:

  • Femtosecond laser system for laser material processing and spectroscopy (FEMTO)
  • Reflectance spectroscopy from the ultraviolet to infrared spectral range (short form UV-IR spectrometer module)
  • Vibration-controlled characterisation of micro- and nanostructures in metallic and optoelectronic materials
  • Research co-operation Xolography, XoloOpt
  • The Network ECO-Photonics
  • Development of a layer-cooled, heterogeneous MOPA solid-state laser system made of Nd-doped vanadates and Cr-doped garnet for miniaturised photonic applications.
  • Characterisation of polymers printed using xolography
  • New transparent polyurethane-siloxane hybrid polymers for the encapsulation of UV LEDs and sensors
  • and more.
