Col­lab­or­ated Re­search Cen­ter TRR 142

The CeOPP plays a central part in the DFG-funded collaborative research center SFB TRR 142 on “Tailored nonlinear photonics” initiated together with the researchers from the TU Dortmund University and supports further funded projects with infrastructure.

The goal is to explore, develop and engineer future nonlinear photonics systems. We are using state-of-the-art technological capabilities for the exploration of new physics and devices based on tailored strong nonlinearities and genuine quantum effects.
