Towards a quantum internet

Towards a quantum internet

A quantum internet enables a new form of communication capable of solving problems that classical communication cannot address. In this talk, I will begin with a general introduction to the quantum‑internet domain and present the Quantum Internet Alliance in Europe. I...
Pulsed laser deposition at the Jožef Stefan Institute

Pulsed laser deposition at the Jožef Stefan Institute

Pulsed laser deposition (PLD) is one of the key techniques for synthesizing epitaxial thin films and heterostructures. In the lecture, I will describe how, at the Jožef Stefan Institute, we used PLD to develop a process for growing functional oxides on semiconductor...
Attosecond light pulses for studying electron dynamics

Attosecond light pulses for studying electron dynamics

When an intense laser light interacts with a gas of atoms, high-order harmonics are generated. In the time domain, this radiation forms a train of extremely short light pulses, of length of the order of 100 attoseconds. These attosecond pulses enable the study of...
