Tais Gorkhover receives ERC Starting Grant "HIGH-Q"
01 January, 2022
Tais Gorkhover, professor in the Department of Physics and an associated researcher in The Hamburg Center for Ultrafast Imaging: Cluster of Excellence Advanced Imaging of Matter, is using extremely short X-Ray flashes of just a few femtoseconds to light up her research specimens. Despite extensive efforts, it was not possible in the last few years to substantially improve the spatial resolution of the pictures beyond just a few nanometers. With the ERC Starting Grant, researchers in the HIGH-Q project should now be able to jump that hurdle by exploiting phenomena hitherto virtually unexplored.
