Key Equipment
Our laboratories and facilities are equipped to serve a diverse range of fields. From ultra-high vacuum (UHV) chambers and a scanning electron microscope (SEM), over to scanning near-field optical microscopy (SNOM), supercontinuum-laser equipped and NIR far-field spectroscopy setups, the picture is rounded with anechoic chamber and waveguide microwave facilities and, on the simulative side, 64-bit multiprocessor workstations.
