Lorenz, Rahul, and Sebastian visited the retreat of Panel A of the Vienna Doctoral School in Chemistry (DoSChem) from 20.3. to 22.3. held in Zeillern, where both Rahul and Lorenz presented their posters summarizing their latest works.
Rahul’s poster, ” Spin-Orbit Coupling in Europium (III) Ions Treated with Selective Quasi-Degenerate Perturbation Theory” explained a methodology to obtain accurate electronic energy levels for Eu3+ based on selecting specific spin-free states.

Lorenz’s poster, “Simulations of magnetic field enhancement and electric field suppression with nano-sized metal apertures”, showed how to enhance the magnetic part of electromagnetic radiation with the use of different apertures.
