Congratulations to Antonio Mazzarone for successfully defending his M.Sc. dissertation entitled “Transient Absorption Spectroscopy of ligand-coated CsPbBr3 nanoparticle supracrystals”!

LUXEM is grateful to SHARPER (SHAring Researchers’ Passion for Education and Rights, EU) for including our stand at the European Researchers Night (ERN), which took place on September 27th at the University of Pavia. ERN aims to involve all citizens in discovering the profession of researcher and the role that researchers play in building the future of society. Find out more

The photographic show, organized by SHARPER-ERN in collaboration with “Associazione Fotografica Citta’ Giardino (AFCG)”, took place at Palazzo Broletto in Pavia, 25-28 September. It aimed to show to the public the actions underpinning scientific research, through extracts from everyday life of researchers in their laboratory. We are grateful to the organizers for choosing our work for this important dissemination event. Find out more

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.

The "Paris-Saclay Ultrafast X-ray and Attosecond Science School" is a biannual thematic school organized by the Institute for the Sciences of Light at Paris-Saclay University, in collaboration with the "The Frontiers of Attosecond and Ultrafast X-ray Science School" in Erice, Italy. Antonio Mazzarone and Domenico Compagnini attended the School presenting posters entitled "Correlative Ultrafast EUV Microscopy and Transient Reflectivity of Functionalized Nanoparticles Supracrystals” and “Design and Implementation of in-line diagnostics for real-time ultrafast EUV ptychography”.
