The European commission, Photonics 21 and LASHARE invite to a forum at Laser World of Photonics in Munich on June 29th from 10:00 to 14:00 in Hall B3.360. Under the headline “Digitisation of laserbased manufacturing in Europe” the program intends to identify topics and activities that support digitisation in the photonics sector. After an overview about research agendas and work programmes by t...

We present an experimental investigation on the exciton dynamics of monolayer and bulk WSe2 samples, both of which are studied by femtosecond transient absorption microscopy. Under the excitation of a 405 nm pump pulse, the differential reflection signal of a probe pulse (tuned to the A-exciton resonance) reaches a peak rapidly that indicates an ultrafast formation process of excitons. By resol...

Highly absorptive thin films serve as the active layer of a new class of photonic devices based on the strong coupling of light and matter. In order to develop these devices into a new field of integrated photonics, methods for analysis, patterning, and deposition of the active layer are necessary. This thesis develops these methods and applies them to thin films of J-aggregates grown in a laye...
