Summary
Daniel Schick is a Junior Research Group Leader based in Berlin with a decade of experience probing ultrafast dynamics in condensed matter using resonant soft X-ray scattering and laser-driven techniques. He develops lab-scale soft X-ray setups and leverages frequent access to synchrotrons and free-electron lasers to track spatiotemporal spin dynamics in antiferromagnets and magnetic multilayers. Trained in lattice dynamics with hard X-rays and holding a PhD in Ultrafast Dynamics, he focuses on disentangling spin–lattice interplay during photoinduced phase transitions. An avid Python developer, he regularly publishes and contributes to open-source tools for data acquisition, analysis, and physical modeling, blending experimental leadership with hands-on software craftsmanship.
