Signal pump-probe detection from our EUV microscope via sum-frequency generation. This three-wave mixing process which occurs on a non-linear crystal when two high-intensity photon beams overlap within a few millionths of meters in space and a few millionths of billionths of seconds in time.
LUXEM participates to INFN's project LAB2GO with a Lab Showcase. LAB2GO aims to support High Schools towards the improvement of their laboratory facilities, as well as to promote UNIPV Physics Department and ongoing research activities therein.
LUXEM opens its facility to showcase laboratory & research to High School students with practical demonstrations. A wonderful opportunity to disseminate our research to young prospective students in Physics and Photonics.
Nicola Giani presented LUXEM research in two talks on EUV ultrafast and Deep Learning for Ptychography at CLEO 2024, one of the top International Conferences in Optics, Lasers and Photonics, this year in Charlotte, North Carolina (USA).
Simone Restelli talk “Ultrafast Dynamics of the Multi-Centre Spinel Co3O4 ” at ECONOS 2024 - European Conference On Non-Linear Optical Spectroscopy 2024 (Wien, A). LUXEM thanks the organizing committee for this wonderful opportunity!
On March 8th, 2024, Prof. Mancini was a panelist at the conference “Fix the leaky pipeline: experiences of women in science” sponsored by Fondazione Cariplo’s NanoFast project. A great opportunity to reflect about the meaning of scientific method, STEM research, gender equality. Find out more
Prof. Giulia Fulvia Mancini committee member and chair of the session “Novel Schemes for Ultrashort Pulses - HTu3B” at the “High-Intensity Lasers and High- Field Phenomena” (HILAS2024). Congratulations to Dr. Carmelo Grova for his presentation of “A Compact Beamline for High-Throughput, Multiscale, Ultrafast Extreme Ultraviolet Ptychography”! Find out more
Prof. Giulia Fulvia Mancini, awardee of the Junior Prize 2020 entitled to Prof. Mildred Dresselhaus, joins the pool of awardees at CUI Hamburg for the 10 year Jubilee and presents a hybrid talk entitled: “Multiscale Ultrafast Microscopy across X-ray tabletop and facility-scale sources & Imposter Syndrome”.

Professor Giulia Fulvia Mancini has been invited by Dr. Laura Cattaneo as speaker within the Bothe Colloquium series at the Max Planck Institute for Nuclear Physics - Pfeiffer division. A wonderful opportunity to discuss common collaborative research projects with the partners of the Ultrafast Liquid Crystal Dynamics(ULCD) group.
LUXEM projects ERC StG ULTRAIMAGE and ERC PoC HYPER highlighted in the Italian newspaper "Il Sole24Ore". In the article appeared on Wednesday 20th December 2023, on "Il Sole24Ore", Prof. Mancini explains relevance and breakthrough impact of the 2 ERC projects @LUXEM. ERC StG ULTRAIMAGE aims to unravel the rapid processes occurring in functional nanomaterials relevant to optoelectronics, photovoltaics, and biomedical devices, when hit by short light pulses. ERC PoC HYPER expands the innovative technology for ultrafast microscopy across length scales, implemented within ULTRAIMAGE, and makes it accessible to the public. Find out more
