Clocking fundamental attosecond electron dynamics (Attoclock)

Start date: Mar 1, 2013, End date: Feb 28, 2018,

The attoclock is a powerful, new, and unconventional tool to study fundamental attosecond dynamics on an atomic scale. We established its potential by using the first attoclock to measure the tunneling delay time in laser-induced ionization of helium and argon atoms, with surprising results. Building on these first proof-of-principle measurements, I propose to amplify and expand this tool concept ...

Chirped (aperiodic) quasi-phasematched (CQPM) gratings offer many advantages in the context of optical parametric chirped pulse amplification (OPCPA), including ultrabroad bandwidths, engineerable gain spectra, and potential for high efficiency via adiabatic frequency conversion. Our main goals are to investigate CQPM devices and apply them to mid-infrared OPCPA systems. We will determine the limi ...

Ultrafast Lasers and Attosecond Dynamics (ULAD)

Start date: Apr 1, 2011, End date: Jul 31, 2013,

"Attosecond technology realizes the century-old dream of direct measurement of electron dynamics at the atomic scale. The ensuing experimental cornucopia, with many publications in Nature and Science, underscores the need for better analytic tools to explain the data, as a step towards a better physical foundation for a truly multi-disciplinary science. Current theoretical technique must be subst ...

FAST-DOT aims to implement a new range of ultrafast quantum-dot lasers for critical bio-medical applications. This project will develop portable, low-cost, reliable, highly efficient ultrashort pulse and ultra-broadband tuneable laser sources. The key technical innovation – quantum dots (QDs) - are based on novel semiconductor nanostructure clusters which demonstrate remarkable new photonic prope ...
