Organic devices are seeing widespread use in classical technologies, from organic electronics and transistors to organic light-emitting diodes and solar cells. Organic molecules also have a number of desirable properties…

The use of Quantum Information techniques (quantum 2.0) promises to outperform classical information processing techniques for some tasks. This has recently motivated a large investment in the research of quantum…

Graphene can be grown by molecular beam epitaxy on boron nitride and exhibits complex and highly anisotropic strain fields which are investigated using AFM and Raman spectroscopy. Post-growth strain relief…

Rydberg Excitons in Cuprous Oxide Manfred Bayer Experimentelle Physik 2, Fakultät Physik, TU Dortmund, D-44227 Dortmund, Germany   Excitons determine the optical properties of semiconductors. Their description as hydrogen atom-like…

Quantum optomechanics uses the radiation-pressure interaction and the tools of quantum optics to extend the control of individual quantum systems to a macroscopic regime. The field is currently receiving a…
