Department Physik - Prof. Dr. Thomas Zentgraf (Universität Paderborn)

The Ultrafast Nanophotonics Group investigates the optical properties of artificially created material systems. Modern nanotechnology provides us with new methods for arranging and structuring natural materials down to size of few nanometers to obtain well-defined subwavelength structured composite materials. This opens the path for designing and controlling the optical material properties for certain purposes and particular applications as well as provides a route to a novel integrated design. → READ MORE
