Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light News
Metasurfaces Open Up Research Paths For Quantum State Engineering
ERLANGEN, Germany, Sept. 15, 2022 — Scientists from the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light and the Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg, in cooperation with Sandia National Laboratories, have pioneered a method of generating entangled photon pairs...
Parallel Reactors Unveil the Secrets of Soliton Molecules
ERLANGEN, Germany, June 29, 2021 — A team of scientists at the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light has developed a platform called a parallel optical-soliton reactor, which can host massively dynamic events of soliton molecules. The parallel reactors resemble chemical...
Max Planck, University of Ottawa Collaboration Extended Five Years
OTTAWA, Ontario, Oct. 22, 2020 — The Max Planck Society announced an extended, five-year round of funding for the Max Planck—University of Ottawa Centre for Extreme and Quantum Photonics (MPC-EQP). The international collaboration supports workshops, student and researcher...
ICFO, Max Planck Develop Photonic Crystal Fiber System
BARCELONA, Spain, Oct. 4, 2017 — A European-based research collaboration between the Institute of Photonic Sciences (ICFO) in Spain and the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light (MPL) in Germany have reported the development of a hollow-core photonic crystal fiber system...
The Fall of Rayleigh’s Curse
Nov 2, 2016 — The Hope Diamond; Egypt’s infamous Tutankhamun; Turáni átok in Hungary — all are associated with purported curses that continue to plague believers around the world. The optics world has a curse of its own, of sorts —...
Fiber Optics: From ‘Piping Light’ to All-Optical Communications
Apr 7, 2016 — The basis of optical communications systems, fiber optics uses thin, flexible glass or plastic fibers as wave guides, or “light pipes,” to channel light from one location to another. This concept has been around since the late 19th...
Interferometric Technique Targets Protein Shadows
ERLANGEN, Germany, Sept. 24, 2014 — A new optical method for targeting proteins could mean earlier diagnosis and more effective treatment for cancer.
Squeezed Light Transmitted Through Air
ERLANGEN, Germany, Sept. 16, 2014 — German scientists have overcome a theoretical hurdle by transmitting a pulse of squeezed light over a long distance through the air.
People In The News

Photonic Crystal Fiber Inventor Named OSA VP
ROCHESTER, N.Y., Oct. 17, 2012 — Photonic crystal fiber inventor Philip Russell was elected as The Optical Society’s 2013 vice president, the organization announced Tuesday at Frontiers in Optics 2012. Three directors at large were also chosen by OSA members.
For New Applications, Give Photonic Fiber a Twist
ERLANGEN, Germany, Aug. 10, 2012 — Simple longitudinal twists that convert photonic crystal fibers into filters were measured and theorized upon; the results suggest new applications in optical communications and will enable the construction of sensors, light amplifiers and lasers.
Laser rulers join the planet hunt
GARCHING, Germany – Astronomers searching for extrasolar planets may be a step closer to finding other Earth-like places in the universe around sunlike stars, thanks to a new tool that promises to increase the accuracy of planet-hunting devices by tenfold. Scientists...
Planet-Hunting with Laser Rulers
GARCHING, Germany, June 1, 2012 — Astronomers searching for extrasolar planets may be a step closer to finding other Earthlike places in the universe around sunlike stars, thanks to a new tool that promises to increase the accuracy of planet-hunting devices by tenfold.
Hackers Test Quantum Cryptography Security
TRONDHEIM, Norway, Sept. 15, 2010 — A new technique that exploits imperfections in quantum cryptography systems has been developed and tested by the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), the University of Erlangen-Nürnberg and the Max Planck Institute for the...
Light moves in not-so-mysterious ways
ERLANGEN, Germany – How can we search the Internet more quickly? How will future quantum computer networks operate? What is happening during the fast energy transfer in photosynthesis? These and many other questions related to the dynamics of complex systems are now...
Photons Led Astray
ERLANGEN, Germany, Feb. 17, 2010 – An international team, headed by researchers at the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light, is using polarized light (light waves that oscillate in a particular plane) to de...
