Research Interests
|
|
The potential of attoscience lies in retrieving information about the dynamics of quantum systems which cannot be gained otherwise through time-stationary energy-domain measurements. Combining coherent control, attosecond soft-X-ray (XUV) pulses, and powerful coincidence imaging techniques allows us to unravel those mysteries. It permits us to probe our most profound physics theories, provides a systematic approach to understand and control chemical reaction pathways, and could ultimately advance biological dynamic imaging.
The group works in a highly interdisciplinary field which fuses ultrafast laser physics, extreme nonlinear optics, atomic and molecular physics, XUV synchrotron optics, UHV technology, and electron-ion coincidence imaging techniques.
