The laser-based tools made by the German company P.A.L.M. Microlaser Technologies GmbH are now standard equipment for researchers around the world who focus on cancer research, genome or proteome projects. The "laser tweezers", "laser microbeam" and "laser catapult" can move, capture, separate, or extract individual cells for further diagnosis.

A major leap in laser physics during the past 30 years has been the ability to create very short laser pulses. But for a long time, the exact shape of the pulses were unkown. Professor Ian Walmsley’s “SPIDER” measurement technique now does characterize these ultra-short femto- and picosecond laser pulses.

Precision measurement using light is standard practice today. However, a suitable field device to measure the very high frequency of the light itself was not available until recently because light oscillates extremely fast. The breakthrough came with the frequency comb. Dr. Michael Mei and Dr. Ronald Holzwarth developed this simple and very precise measuring method.

Berthold Leibinger Zukunftspreis 2006 |
|
|
The experimental and theoretical work of Professor H. Jeffrey Kimble in the field of cavity quantum electrodynamics has formed an essential foundation for quantum information technology, which may be considered a key technology of the 21st century. In conjunction with micro- and nanotechnology, powerful new technical possibilities emerge for the processing and distribution of information, including the quantum internet and quantum computing that could revolutionize information technology.
