Some work from my time in Regensburg, in the @Huber_Group. We worked out how to measure the coherent emission from tunnelling electrons, this lets us do ultrafast optical microscopy now at the atomic scale! nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

As well, we wrote a little briefing which gives a bit of an overview! nature.com/articles/d41586-0…

Beautiful new work from friends in Regensburg @Huber_Group, who were able to see - in a single defect! - how ultrafast atomic motion shifts energy levels. nature.com/articles/s41566-0…

The Aharanov-Bohm effect Weisskopf said: The first reaction to this work is that it is wrong; the second is that it is obvious Ehrenberg said: Ach Hiley, zis AB effect that you are discussing, is it the one that Siday and I discovered? What is it? 1/9 🧵

We observed the ultrafast emergence of a Floquet-Bloch band structure for the first time. Strong-field #ARPES revealed that Floquet-Bloch states form already after a single optical cycle. The results have been published in @Nature: doi.org/10.1038/s41586-023-0…

Together with @UMengineering, we realized a stopwatch for delocalized Bloch electrons in crystals that achieves attosecond precision. This way, many-body correlations can be directly measured. Our results were published in @Nature. nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

In collaboration with @MalicGroup, we used ultrafast near-field microscopy to study the Mott transition of strongly-bound excitons in an atomically thin heterostructure of WSe₂. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…
