SUMMARY:RTG seminar: Dr. David N Purschke
DESCRIPTION:Strong‐fields and photons in solids\, from classical to quantum light \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nJoint Attosecond Science Laboratory\, University of Ottawa and NationalResearch Council of Canada \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nAt the surface\, strong‐field physics and quantum optics seem to operate in disparate regimes of light‐matter interaction. Nevertheless\, the growing field of attosecond quantum opticsis beginning to bridge this gap\, with the solid state providing an ideal platform of study [1]. I will discuss two experiments at this intersection: in the first\, we see how a photon picture emerges from a laser‐dressed crystal using classical light [2]. In the second\, we begin to study field‐driven processes with emerging non‐classical and intense sources known as brightsqueezed vacuum [3]. \n\n\n\n[1] L.

SUMMARY:RTG seminar:Dr. Jan Gerrit Horstmann
DESCRIPTION:Optical control of nonequilibrium phases: from hammers to tweezers: \n\n\n\nDepartment of Materials\,ETH Zurich \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nUltrafast pump-probe spectroscopy has not only provided remarkable insights into electronic and structural dynamics on atomic length and femtosecond time scales but has also enabled the optical control of nonequilibrium states. Over the past decade\, a dominant trend in the field has been the shift from strong\, unselective optical stimuli towards the selective excitation of few key degrees of freedom—in other words\, from hammers to tweezers. This ap-proach promises more energy-efficient switching and access to entirely new states of matter.In this talk\, I will present three examples of optical control over nonequilibrium states with increasing selectivity. The spectrum ranges from laser-induced thermal quenching of a multiferroic domain pattern to the all-optical amplification of a key phonon mode in a van der Waals ferroelectric\, and finally to the ultrafast manipulation of metal-insulator nanotex-tures. Furthermore\, I will provide an outlook on a novel approach for the investigation and control of structural dynamics based on non-resonant excit-ation of phonons via transient Raman forces. \n\n\n\nVenue: RUN auditorium

SUMMARY:RTG seminar:Prof. Dr. Götz Uhrig
DESCRIPTION:Concepts and applications in non-equilibrium physics \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nTU Dortmund \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nNon-equilibrium physics has become one of the thriving focal points in condensed matter physics. Pump-probe experiments are by now fairly common and further driving protocols attract more and more attention. We will discuss how periodic driving allows to cool a small quantum system by exploiting the commensurability of various oscillatory processes [1]. Interestingly\, the Lindblad damping of a highly excited state is crucial here. Turning to ordered magnetic systems\, it is common to describe their damping by Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equations. The question arises whether this phenomenological formalism is related to Lindblad damping. We will present such a conceptual link [2]. Finally\, we explicity consider how one can switch magnetic order efficiently by electromagnetic pulses. How strong do the pulses have to be [3]? What is the influence of relaxation? These question are relevant for processing data in magnetic storage devices. \n\n\n\n[1] Quantum coherence from commensurate driving with laser pulses and decay G.S.

SUMMARY:Special lecture: Prof. Milena Grifoni
DESCRIPTION:Introduction to Floquet theory \n\n\n\nUniversity of RegensburgHow to characterize properties of a quan-tum system subject to an intense time-periodic drive? We shall address this question within the framework of Floquet theory. According to the Floquet theorem\, the solutions of the time-dependent Schrö-dinger equation display a quasi-stationary evolution\, governed by quasi-energies\, and a periodic part. Working in the Sambe space\, it is possible to evaluate both the so-called quasi-energy spectrum and the Floquet functions without resorting to perturbation theory in the strength of the time-periodic drive or other commonly used approxim-ations. Noticeably\, the quasi-energy spect-rum can be qualitatively different from the one of the undriven Hamiltonian\, opening pathways to manipulate properties of quantum systems by a time-periodic drive. These concepts will be illustrated on the example of a strongly driven two-level system. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue: RUN auditorium \n\n\n\nLecture Notes: here.

SUMMARY:RTG seminar: Artur Slobodeniuk
DESCRIPTION:Intraband motion corrections to the spectrum of excitons in transition metal dichalcogenide monolayers \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nDepartment of Condensed Matter Physics\, Faculty of Mathematics and Physics\, Charles University\, Prague\, Czech Republic \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nTransition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) monolayers are among the most intriguing two-dimensional materials for optoelectronic applications due to their unique valley-dependent electronic properties. In particular\, the superposition of intravalley exciton states at the nonequivalent ±K points can be considered a qubit\, which has potential applications in various quantum technologies. The manipulation of such qubits for dark intravalley excitons using intense magnetic fields was demonstrated in 2019 [1]. Subsequently\, similar control over bright excitonic states using non-resonant circularly polarized light was both experimentally observed and theoretically explained [2\,3]. In the latter\, the theoretical analysis relied on the Semiconductor Bloch equations (SBE)\, where the dominant interband transition terms were considered. However\, as it turned out\, this approximation is valid for small intensities of applied optical pulses and needs to be reconsidered for more intense pulses. In this work\, we analyze the solutions of the SBE\, incorporating the previously neglected intraband term\, which governs electron dynamics within the separate bands. We develop a new perturbation technique and calculate corrections to the shifts of intravalley exciton energies in TMD monolayers [4]. The possibility of experimentally measuring these results is also discussed. \n\n\n\nReferences \n\n\n\n [1] M. R. Molas et al\, Phys. Rev. Lett. 123\, 096803 (2019) \n\n\n\n [2] A. O.

SUMMARY:RTG Colloquium:Franz Giessibl & Sabine Maier
DESCRIPTION:Venue: Run auditorium2 pmAtomic Force Microscopy (AFM)This tutorial presentation builds on Jascha Repp’s introduction to scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) six months ago. STM relies on the monotonic exponential decay of the tunneling current with distance. This decay at a factor of ten per Angstrom distance reduction ensures a high spatial resolution and a relatively simple implementation of STM. AFM is harder\, as the forces between a sharp tip and a sample often have strong long-range van-der-Waals compo-nents\, the forces are non-monotonic and the experimental measurement of small forces measurements (nN and below) is more difficult than the measurement of tunnling currents (nA and below). Frequency modulation AFM with stiff self-sensing cantilevers (qPlus sensors) provides a powerful solution that even obtains higher spatial resolution than STM. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nProf. Dr. Franz J. GießiblUniversity of Regensburg \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n3 pmBottom-up fabrication and electronic structure of atomically precise low-dimensional materialsThe ability to engineer atomically precise low-dimensional structures with tailored electronic properties is essential for the development of future electronic and quantum materials. This presentation focuses on molecular architectures constructed through bottom-up surface reactions. By combining scanning probe microscopy with density-functional theory\, we investigate their atomic-scale structure and electronic characteristics. Recent advances in the synthesis and characterization of surface-supported 2D polymers and nanographenes illustrate how structural precision enables electronic property control. These studies offer fundamental insights into the design and functionality of low-dimensional materials. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nProf. Dr. Sabine MaierFAU Erlangen-Nürnberg

SUMMARY:RTG Colloquium:Jan Vogelsang & Gerti Beliu
DESCRIPTION:2 pmFrom single‐molecule fluorescence spectroscopy to (fast) super‐resolution microscopySuper‐resolution (SR) microscopy has revolutionized far‐field fluorescence imaging by overcoming the diffraction limit of light. The technique relies fundamentally on the ability to detect single fluorescent molecules\, and the first part will focus on achieving this\, which requires carefully optimized technical and photophysical needs\, including the manipulation of fluorophore behavior through photoinduced redox reactions. The second part will focus on a novel approach using DNA origami nanoantennas to dramatically enhance fluorescencesignals in single‐molecule experiments. Such nanoantennas can increase the fluorescence of single molecules by an order of magnitude\, which increases the time resolution and facilitates the observation of ultrafast processes such as thediffusive barrier crossing events between two potential energy minima in disordered proteins. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr. Jan VogelsangUniversity of RegensburgInstitute of Experimental and Applied Physics \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n3 pmClick. Tag. Image –A Hitchhiker’s Guide to Molecular BioimagingSuper‐resolution microscopy holds the promise of visualizing molecular processes in cells with nanometer precision. However\, realizing this potential requires labeling strategies that are not only bright and site‐specific\, but also biologically orthogonal. Many commonly used labeling approaches interfere with protein function or fail to access conformationally restricted or sterically masked epitopes in live‐cell environments. In our work\, we develop and apply biochemical labeling strategies that combine genetic code expansion\, bioorthogonal click chemistry\, and fluorogenic dyes to overcome these limitations. By minimizing linkage errors and enabling stoichiometric labeling under native conditions\, we aim to push the limits of resolution\, specificity\, and functional integrity in molecular imaging. This talk will provide an overview of our toolbox\, recent applications\, and future directions for nanoscale imaging of proteins in living systems.Venue: RUN auditorium \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nProf. Dr. Gerti BeliuUniversity of RegensburgInstitute of Pharmacy

SUMMARY:RTG Colloquium:Ulrich Höfer
DESCRIPTION:Formation of Floquet-Bloch bands in solidsPeriodic driving of electrons in solids by strong light fields can lead to the formation of Floquet- Bloch bands\, i.e.\, sidebands separated by multiples of the driving frequency. The induced change of the electronic structure is one route to materials design by light. In 2009\, Oka proposed that circularly polarized light can turn the semimetal graphene into a Chern insulator in this way. While transport experiments could so far not provide compelling evidence for the predicted anomalous Hall effect\, time-resolved photoemission has clearly demonstrated the formation of Floquet-Bloch bands for several materials\, including graphene. Moreover\, with subcycle resolution\, it has become possible to reveal their ultrafast build-up. These experiments show that Floquet sidebands emerge after a single optical cycle\, concurrently with intraband acceleration of the electrons.Venue: RUN auditorium

SUMMARY:RTG seminar:Martin Švec
DESCRIPTION:Photon-induced processes at single molecules in SPM nanocavitiesInstitute of PhysicsCzech Academy of SciencesPraha 6\,Czech Republic \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nExploration of isolated chromophores – optically active molecules – often reveals stunningly complex internal dynamics of excitations and transitions between electronic configurations\, influenced by coupling to vibrational levels and reorganization of local environments. One of the promising tools for studying the photophysics of individual molecules with nanometer resolution is optical spectroscopy that employs plasmonic\, atomically sharp tips in Scanning Probe Microscopy (SPM)\, which overcomes the fundamental spatial resolution limits of visible and infrared light. This methodology enables measurements that correlate electronic structure and atomic arrangement with various photon spectroscopies – e.g.\, fluorescence\, absorption\, and Raman scattering – as a function of applied electric field and measurement geometry. In this lecture\, I will present our experiments with photon spectroscopies using SPM\, focusing in particular on photon absorption-induced phenomena such as photoluminescence\, and photon-induced current generation\, through which we achieved a direct visual discrimination among the components of a multiconfigurational state of an open-shell chromophore. \n\n\n\nVenue: RUN 0\,35

SUMMARY:RTG Seminar:Dr. Carolin Gold
DESCRIPTION:From microscopic to macroscopic phenomena:Bridging length scales in two- dimensional quantum materials \n\n\n\nColumbia University \n\n\n\nTwo-dimensional quantum materials have driven a revolution in condensed matter physics through the realization of a large variety of exotic quantum phenomena\, ranging from strong correlations and quantum magnetism to topological states. At the core of this revolution is the unique tunability of the quantum phases emergent at the macroscopic scale through variations in the microscopic roperties of the material. Despite decades of intensive theoretical and experimental endeavors\, bridging these two length scales has remained a major challenge\, leaving numerous questions nanswered.In this talk\, we demonstrate how atomic force microscopy (AFM) can be used not only to (i) probe quantum electronic states across multiple length scales\, but also to (ii) locally control and engineer the interplay between microscopic and acroscopic properties in van der Waals materials. Using the AFM tip as a mechanical actuator we bend narrow van der Waals ribbons\, realizing (moiré) heterostructures with engineered twist angle and strain gradients. Combining these structures with low-temperature conductive AFM imaging not only reveals their unique electronic properties\, but also opens exciting avenues for studying the interplay between microscopic and macroscopic length scales through versatile and novel AFM techniques. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nVenue: RUN Auditorium

SUMMARY:RTG Colloquium:Prof. Dr. Miriam Vitiello
DESCRIPTION:Detector-less near-field quantum nanoscopy in the far-infraredNEST\, CNR – Istituto Nanoscienze and Scuola Normale Superiore\, Pisa\, Italy \n\n\n\nNear-field nanoscopy at terahertz (THz) frequencies (wavelength range\, 3 mm – 3 µm) enables studies of objects over a large span of scales – from 300 µm to the nanometer scale – and disciplines\, from physics to biological science. The talk will show the potential of a series of near-field nanoimaging approaches that\, while exploiting the same core building block (a detector-less QCL-based nanoscope)\, rely on different physical mechanism for imaging reconstruction. I will also highlight their potential for tracing the realspace propagation of THz-frequency polaritons in isotropic and anisotropic nanomaterials and meta-elements. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nVenue: RUN Auditorium

SUMMARY:Special lecture: Prof. Dr. Sebastian Loth
DESCRIPTION:Stochastic and coherent dynamics of spins and electrons at the atomic scaleInstitute for Functional Matter and Quantum Technologies\, University of Stuttgart \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nMany fascinating phenomena at the atomic scale\, such as energy transfer between quantumsystems or collective behavior of electrons in correlated materials\, remain hidden to staticmeasurements. The combination of ultrafast spectroscopy with scanning probe microscopypresents a unique opportunity to study the dynamics of matter locally at its intrinsic length andtime scales. This lecture introduces recent advances using all-electronic microwave spectroscopy to capture quantum dynamics of magnetic atoms and small quantum magnets\, as well as lightcoupled THz pump-probe techniques with femtosecond resolution that reveal phonon propagation and collective excitations in charge-density wave materials. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nVenue: RUN Auditorium

DESCRIPTION:How to describe pump-probe experiments in quantum materialsGeorgetown University\, Washington\, USA \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nI will describe both the challenges\, and how to address them\, when theoretically modelling ultrafast pump-probe experiments in strongly correlated materials and in materials with strong electron-phonon coupling. After providing an introduction\, I will focus on three case studies: (i) examining the response at picosecond times of charge-density waves with ultrashort pulses that drive the electrons; (ii) examining the response on femtosecond times for nonresonant electronic Raman scattering; and (iii) examining how one can measure correlated charge dynamics in f-electronsystems using x-ray photoemission spectroscopy and x-ray absorption spectroscopy. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nVenue: H34

SUMMARY:RTG Seminar:Assistant Professor Ipsita Mandal
DESCRIPTION:Detectable signatures of topology of the bandstructures in 3d semimetalsShiv Nadar Institution of Eminence (SNIoE)\, India \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nWe will elucidate the nature of the linear-response tensors in planar-Hall and planar-thermal-Hall set-ups\, where we subject a 3d semimetal (harbouring nodal points of topological nature) to the combine influence of an electric field (and/or temperature gradient) and a weak (i.e. non-quantising) magnetic field. We will explain why it is essential to include the effects of the intrinsic orbital magnetic moment of the wavepackets in conjunction with the Berry curvature\, in order to obtain a holistic picture of the effects of topology of the Brillouin zone in the linear-response tensors. Going beyond the well-studied example of Weyl semimetals\, we will discuss the cases of their multifold cousins\, harbouring higher Chern numbers. We will highlight how we can compute the exact solutions from the Boltzmann equations\, which gets rid of the often-inaccurate results of the naive relaxation-time approximation. Finally\, we will outline how to derive surface states\, in the form of Fermi arcs\, characterising generic nodal points. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nVenue: PHY 5.0.21

DESCRIPTION:Single-molecule optics with atomic precision\n\n\n\nAtomic Scale Optics\, Max Planck Institute for Solid State Research\, Stuttgart\, Germany \n\n\n\nLuminescence\, photosynthesis\, and energy harvesting rely on processes originating at the spatial scale of individual molecules. Investigating the details of these mechanisms requires reaching subnm precision in optics\, which becomes possible by combining optical spectroscopy with scanningprobe microscopy. In my talk\, I will discuss how atomic-scale optics can be used to study the optical properties of single molecules and to drive photochemistry with sub-nm precision. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nVenue: RUN Auditorium

SUMMARY:RTG Colloquium:Prof. Dr. Renske van der Veen
DESCRIPTION:Fast electrons and hard X-rays for unraveling atomic-scale dynamics in light-energy conversion\n\n\n\nDepartment Atomic-Scale Dynamics in Light-Energy Conversion\, Helmholtz Zentrum Berlin \n\n\n\nThe increasing demand for renewable and low-cost energy motivates intensive research aimed at characterizing and optimizing materials that can efficiently convert (sun) light into usable energy in the form of electricity or chemical fuels. Conventional characterization techniques either lack the spatial resolution necessary to resolve individual atoms\, or they lack the temporal resolution required to capture structural rearrangements as they evolve. Our group develops complementary X-ray and electron-based tools to visualize light-induced processes in materials on atomic length and time scales. In this talk I will introduce you to the techniques of ultrafast/time-resolved X-ray spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy and provide several examples of how these techniques can be used in the fields of solar energy and catalysis. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nVenue: RUN Auditorium
