Research
Four current directions in the group, spanning tabletop X-ray sources to next-generation long-wavelength laser architectures.
Soft X-ray sources
Tabletop EUV & soft X-ray sources driven by a 1.5 µm and 3 µm OPCPA for ptychographic imaging at <10 nm resolution.
Quantum material studies
Tabletop keV-class soft X-ray sources driven by a home-built 2 µm pumped (Ho:YLF), 3 µm OPCPA for quantum material studies.
High harmonic generation
Ultrafast, high energy 2 µm laser systems relying on Ho-doped materials for high harmonic generation and tabletop accelerators.
Beam combining
Investigation of novel nonlinear beam combining methods for MHz, high average power, long wavelength laser systems.
