Martin Aeschlimann (born 1957) is a Swiss physicist and professor in the physics department of the

State Research Center for Optics and Material Sciences (OPTIMAS).[2]

Academic career

Aeschlimann studied

ETH Zürich (1980–1985) and was awarded his Ph.D. in physics for his thesis "Magnetism at Surfaces and Ultrafast Magnetization Reversal Studies with Spin-Polarized Photoemission" in 1989. From 1985 to 1989 Aeschlimann was assistant to Prof. H. C. Siegmann at the laboratory for solid-state physics
at ETH Zürich. From 1989 to 1990 he had a postdoctoral position at the National Institute of Standards and Technology in Washington, D.C. The following year Aeschlimann became a research associate at the NSF-Center for Photoinduced Charge Transfer at the University of Rochester. From 1993 to 1998 he was a member of the research staff at the laboratory of
ETH Zürich
. In November 1996 he
habilitated with his thesis: "Time Resolved Studies of Electron Relaxation at Metal Surfaces" [3] followed by his promotion to professor of experimental physics at the University of Duisburg-Essen
. In July 2000 he accepted a permanent position as professor of the physics department at the
Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft (DPG). The section represents more than 18 0000 members in 13 divisions. Since 2009 Aeschlimann is Member of the Editorial Board of the magazine New Journal of Physics
.

Research

Aeschlimann's research program is devoted to the investigation of ultrafast phenomena in solids, on interfaces and in

photoemission (ARPES, PEEM, momentum microscopy) and time-resolved magneto-optical effects
are implemented with laser pulses in visible light and the soft X-ray region.

Awards and honours

Profil-II award of the Swiss National Science Foundation.

Publications

Aeschlimann has published more than 200 articles in peer-reviewed international scientific journals,[5]
