Our scientific mission is to advance ultrafast laser technology, explore new areas of coherent light generation, and apply our uniquely tailored ultrafast sources to better understand chemical, biological, and physical processes.
We are a group of around 25 researchers at Ruhr University Bochum, building femtosecond laser systems at record average powers and using them to reach regimes of light–matter interaction that were previously inaccessible. Our work is supported among others by the European Research Council, the European Innovation Council, the Cluster of Excellence RESOLV and the Research Center Chemical Sciences and Sustainibility of the University Alliance Ruhr. We work both with industry and with many academic partners around the globe. Our work has led to the spin-off company Rayven.
