Slowed down? Sure. They were also losing two wars and being invaded, which put a damper on things. However, at no point did Germany say "Fuck it, we're done with this shit". All the major powers at the time were aggressively pursuing a nuclear bomb and were actively stealing everyone's knowledge from each other, if not sharing it... its not like German physicists were just confused and gave up, as our little swamp loving inbred friend is trying to suggest.
