After a competitive selection process, Dr. Hiroki Tanaka's research proposal titled 'Photonics with ultra-pure fluoride crystals' has been awarded funding for the next five years under the esteemed Leibniz Junior Research Groups framework within the Leibniz Competition 2024.

The Leibniz Association explains its decision:

Photonics has opened up technologies in a variety of areas from fundamental research to applications in industry. Materials that govern light-matter interactions play a crucial role in photonics, and the limited purity of the materials has prevented the realization of various promising technologies, including nonlinear optics in the vacuum UV and laser cooling of solids. This is where the Leibniz-Junior Research Group led by Dr Hiroshi Tanaka starts: the aim is to use an elaborate, complex process to develop crystals of the highest purity and to further confirm their suitability for the abovementioned technologies in laboratory experiments. The group combines interdisciplinary expertise on crystal growth and photonic technologies in one place and will use this expertise to develop innovative solutions for applications in modern photonics.
