Zusammenfassung

Ultrafast processes on nanoscale dimensions are at the heart of such diverse applications as the efficient harvesting of light induced carriers in photovoltaics or the heat management in dense semiconductor devices. However, an experimental toolbox is lacking to map such phenomena on their intrinsic femto- and picosecond timescales, and on nanometer length scales. Recent developments in stroboscopic electron imaging offer a new avenue to solve this problem, by employing highly coherent femtosecond electron pulses in an electron microscope. The professorship aims at establishing ultraf...
