Attosecond Quantum Physics @ King's College London
We are specialised experimentally and theoretically observing and controlling photo-induced phenomena on the attosecond (1 asec=10^-18 sec) time scale. Our research is scrutinising matter under strong laser fields and focus on understanding the first instant of carrier dynamics.
We develop from cutting edge high repetition rate fsec lasers, attosecond sources and technologies to ultrafast time-resolved mesurements. We study matter from simple sole system ( atom a molecule) to more complex condensed phase (solid, metamaterial, lattice).
