ELI European Project: Construction Begins
28 May 2013
Other important steps necessary for the globally unique multifunction laser centre, ELI Beamlines, to be created in Dolní Břežany near Prague were taken by the Institute of Physics of the ASCR. On Friday, 24 May 2013, the winner of the competition for the contractors of the main phase of the building of the laser centre, the group of Metrostav, VCES and OHL ŽS, was presented at the headquarters of the Academy of Sciences of the CR in Prague. The new key partner of the project was also announced – the first-class American research centre, the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. American specialists in cooperation with Czech colleagues will develop a unique laser system worth CZK 1.1 billion. For more information, see the press release.

Fast manipulation of a magnet by light
1 Apr 2012
A discovery of Czech physicists published in Nature Physics
A direct transfer of angular momentum from a circularly polarized light to spins allows to excite a magnet from its equilibrium state at sub-picosecond time scales. The discovery, allowing to manipulate spins in a magnet by short laser pulses, was reported by scientists from the joint Laboratory of Opto-Spintronics at the Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, Charles University and the Institute of Physics, Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic. The work was published on April 1st 2012 in the journal Nature Physics (DOI: 10.1038/NPHYS2279).
