Research highlights

Beam manipulation
Harmonic ConcatenationExternal link
Laser pulses with a duration of one femtosecond or shorter can be generated both in the Vis-IR and in the extreme UV, but the deep UV is a spectral region where such extremely short pulses were previously not available.

Harmonic concatenation is our new method for the synthesis of ultrashort pulses, yielding record-short deep UV waveforms of only 1.5 fs!
