Short pulse equations (SPEs) have emerged as a vital framework for modelling the propagation of ultra-short optical pulses in nonlinear media. These equations capture wave dynamics on time scales ...

“With our new system, we can achieve levels of efficiency that were previously almost unattainable,” says Prof. Harald Giessen, Head of the 4th Physics Institute at the University of Stuttgart.

The nickel-titanium alloy Nitinol has revolutionized certain segments of the medical device industry. Its unique characteristics have been employed to create a new generation of devices such as ...

A team at the University of Stuttgart has engineered a compact short-pulse laser that achieves up to 80% efficiency—far surpassing current models. Their new multipass design reuses light within a ...

Lasers that emit extremely short light pulses are highly precise and are used in manufacturing, medical applications, and research. The problem: efficient short-pulse lasers require a lot of space and ...

The Max Born Institute for Nonlinear Optics and Short Pulse Spectroscopy (MBI) is a nonprofit research institution, organized in the legal form of a registered association (Forschungsverbund Berlin ...
