The lecture showcases various artifacts from very different eras of human history and tells their stories—what significance they once held and how they were discovered.

We will demonstrate our cryogenic scanning probe microscope (STM & AFM), which is one of the very few commercial instruments capable of operating at temperatures of 1.1 K—that is, near absolute zero.

During this lab tour of the new building of the Center for Applied Research (ZAF), visitors can view a state-of-the-art analytical facility for spectroscopy of electronic states on surfaces and in solids.

Which security measures are most effective? – Strategic prioritization to stay one step ahead of attackers

Smartphone cameras are tiny—and surprisingly powerful in terms of optical performance. This presentation will explain how their lenses are constructed, what their physical limitations are, and how current research could open up new applications for these pocket-sized cameras.

The typical path from the real problem via mathematical modeling to the resulting possible gain of new insights is presented using the example of a mathematical notation for juggling patterns.

The Friedrich Loeffler Institute introduces itself, its mission, and its activities.

An Overview of Today's Automotive Electronics

Why Tiny Particles Are Changing Medicine—and What Sunscreen, Pregnancy Tests, and Modern Cancer Treatments Have in Common.

The rapid expansion of renewable energy goes hand in hand with the continuous optimization and development of existing and new technologies. In this presentation, we will highlight current trends in the development of new, high-efficiency solar cells.
