Research

Kai joined the group in 2020 as a student researcher. His main investigation during his PhD graduate period will be the interaction between ultrafast light pulses and DNA-hybrid systems for different future applications (for instance lab-on-a-chip devices). Additionally, due to his background in nanoscience he is also interested in time resolved studies involving nanoparticles, particularly in the field of plasmonics.
