Our scientific mission is to advance ultrafast laser technology, explore new areas of coherent light generation, and apply our uniquely tailored ultrafast sources to better understand chemical, biological, and physical processes.
First demonstration of single-cycle THz pulses at 93 MHz using a resonant cavity and thin lithium niobate, achieving mW-level average power—opening the door to compact, high-efficiency THz sources for imaging and spectroscopy
We demonstrate a record-high THz output of 6.7 mW from large-area photoconductive emitters driven by a frequency-doubled Yb laser at 400 kHz—offering a robust, scalable source for linear and nonlinear THz applications.
We demonstrate the correlation between cumulative hydrodynamics of high-repetition-rate filament plasmas and THz generation efficiency. Our work opens the door for rapid THz-spectroscopy studies with high dynamic range from THz to mid-IR frequencies, significantly accelerating measurement times.
Today we celebrate the dedication of women to science and their success in their specific fields! The pictures show Prof. Dr. Clara Saraceno, head of our research group along with Dr. Anna Ono on one of our set-ups.
