Scientific Profile:

The Dresden High Magnetic Field Laboratory (Hochfeld-Magnetlabor Dresden, HLD) focuses on modern materials research in high magnetic fields. In particular, electronic properties of metallic, semiconducting, superconducting, and magnetic materials are investigated. Work is being carried out on exotic superconductors, strongly correlated systems, low-dimensional magnetic materials as well as nano stuctures on anorganic and organic templates.

The HLD is also engaged in the development of novel experimental techniques including resonant methods as ESR and NMR each modified for the use in high pulsed magnetic fields. Unique in the world, the free-electronen lasers (FEL) of the neighbouring superconducting electron accelerator ELBE can be used in combination with high-field magnets for magneto optical experiments. The Hochfeld-Magnetlabor Dresden is operated for in-house research and as a user facility as well. For the generation of high pulsed magnetic fields, a development program for pulsed magnets and pulsed power supplies is being carried out. These technological activities which make also use of modern simulation methods based on finite elements are under way with respect to industrial applications, e. g. in the field of electromagnetic pulse deformation.
