In our research we address ultrafast processes of solids, surfaces and interfaces. Current topics of interest are surface plasmonic systems, adsorbate-surface interactions and nonequilibrium processes in correlated materials. For this we develop and employ time-resolved photoemission techniques, such as time-resolved two-photon photoemission, time-resolved photoemission electron microscopy with interferometric resolution and time- and angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy.
