Each site of the Institute had a special programme, designed particularly for students with a deep interest in physics, and last but not least, the laser centres sites in Dolní Břežany had rich programme activities for the general public.
The prize is divided among three scientists. One of them, professor Gérard Mourou, is the father of the idea of ExtremeLight Infrastructure project
This may open new doors for developing novel optical sensors, photoluminescent materials, catalysts, and pharmaceuticals.
The festival received more than 17 000 visitors who wished to learn more about research, its practical application and new technologies.
The best students will receive an internship offer to work in research teams to be able to get some more detailed insight into the research in laser physics as part of other activities.
Superelastic and shape memory functional properties of NiTi shape memory alloys are already utilized in medical devices, automotive and space industries, robotics and civil engineering applications.
The diamond is not only the hardest material but it has unique optical properties making it an ideal material for industrial purposes, such as lasers, quantum technologies or applications for biological detection.
Thanks to the project SOLID 21 the Institute will build a new multifunctional centre containing modern physical laboratories and research equipment for one of the fastest developing areas of physics, the solid-state physics.
The unique L3-HAPLS laser system, developed by the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) for ELI Beamlines, was on July 2, 2018, ceremonially launched.
