ETIT, Congratulations to Ferenc Krausz for the 2023 Nobel Prize in Physics

Ferenc Krausz - together with Pierre Agostini and Anne L'Huillier - was awarded the 2023 Nobel Prize in Physics. The experiments that Ferenc Krausz carried out at the Institute of Photonics at TU Wien in the 1990s and early 2000s were explicitly cited by the Nobel Prize Committee as the reason for the award.
