Complex tailored light fields are a disruptive field of photonics that foster basic research areas as singular optics, optical angular momentum or entanglement, and advance applications of photonic lattices, plasmonic excitation, optical trapping or optomechanics. In contrast, tailored careers in the field of light seem to be less succesful for female researchers, lacking behind in comparison...

Controlling ultrafast charge and spin dynamics in solids with ultrashort laser pulses requires us to first identify the quantum processes relevant to light-matter interaction on femtosecond timescales. We disentangle the elementary processes behind ultrafast spin transfer at epitaxial Co/Cu(001) interfaces due to optical excitation with 1.5 eV photon energy by combining femtosecond...

Observing the motion of charges in solid state nanostructures during their interaction with strong light fields is a fundamental goal and an open challenge of contemporary ultrafast science. It requires ultrahigh combined spatial and temporal resolution, and in order to reveal the interaction, the charges‘ energy gain or loss are vital information. Here we present a first experimental...
