| Oct 15, 2026 | We are excited to welcome Lorenzo dei Rossi as new PhD student in the group! Lorenzo freshly received his MSc in chemistry in Padua and is eager to leave jump into a new adventure. |
| Oct 09, 2026 | Developing a new methodology takes time and effort, but it pays off. In this work we demonstrate in detail how our new BBGKY-HEOM approach is derived and how it performs – it does well. (Müller et al., 2026) |
| Apr 23, 2026 | New paper out! Have you ever wondered how a laser-pointer works if you shrink it down to nanometer scales? No worries, we’ve got you covered. The smallest lasers consist of a nanometer-sized cavity, made from nanoparticles, with only a handful of molecules in between that serve as gain medium. Together with Kai and Kimmo, we applied our novel BBGKY-HEOM approach (informed from first principles) and discovered something unexpected: the vibrational properties of these molecules can cause unusual resonances in the laser output. These resonances depend on how strongly the molecules are pumped, their vibrational structure, and the number of molecules. The relative strength of resonant features in the lasing output increases with the number of molecules and can not be explained within the mean-field approximation – a feature that might be useful to identify the precise number of participating molecules. Once again, we find that making things smaller certainly doesn’t make it simpler. (Müller et al., 2026) |
| Mar 27, 2026 | New paper out! Dating can be tough, even between impurity molecules and organic crystals. Here, we play the role of a matchmaker and identify new couples that could build a bright future as quantum light-matter interface (Öhman et al., 2026) |
