As in the books of JRR Tolkien, the Research Group of Laser Applications and Photonics (ALF-USAL) continues their adventure in the search of the Ring. After finding the Phase-Matched Ring in Argon based High-Harmonic Generation [1], now they’ve gone a step beyond to find the Phase-Matched Ring in graphene. It turns out that when a graphene
The National Meeting of Optics of the year 2021 (RNO2021) will take place next week from November 22 to 24. In this online event that has more than 240 registered people and 19 sponsors, more than 200 scientific contributions will be presented. The National Meeting of Optics (RNO) is a triennial congress organized by the
In 1924, Louis-Victor Pierre Raymond, pair of France and Duke of Broglie, astonished his contemporaries in proposing that electrons behave as waves, when moving along spatial dimensions of a few millionths of a milimeters. These distances, dubbed nanometers, remained technologically unaccessible until some decades ago. Roughly speaking, if the electrons appear as waves under these circumstances,
On June 8, the researcher Carlos Hernández García received the Young Scientist Prize In Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics 2021 awarded by the International Union of Pure and Applied Physics (IUPAP) for his: “…outstanding contributions to the theory and modeling of laser-driven high harmonic generation (HHG), both in high photon energy regimes, and in understanding
On November 12, Kevin Dorney, postdoctoral researcher and MSCA member of the AttoLab laboratory of imec (Interuniversity Microelectronics Center) in Leuven (Belgium) visited the Laser and Photonics Applications group as part of the activities planned in the ERC Attostructura project. Kevin Dorney offered us the seminar entitled “Imec’s AttoLab: Bridging the Gap Between Fundamental Ultrafast
First call for the USAL4EXCELLENCE project is now open. Until February 15, 2022, interested candidates may submit their applications through the procedure enabled in the electronic headquarters of the USAL. All the information about the project and the process of preparing / sending applications on the project website is available at the web: USAL4EXCELLENCE – USAL 4
Next November 12 at 10:00 in classroom III of the Trilingual building, Kevin Dorney from imec will give the seminar: Imec’s AttoLab: Bridging the Gap Between Fundamental Ultrafast EUV Science and Practical Metrologies for the Semiconductor Industry High-harmonic generation (HHG) is nature’s most extreme nonlinear process known to date and, for just over 30 years, it
The University of Salamanca (Spain) invites application for a 3,5-year PhD Student position to obtain a PhD degree in Physics, starting in January 2022. The position is part of the project ATTOSTRUCTURA, “Structured attosecond pulses for ultrafast nanoscience”, funded by the European Research Council (ERC) under the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program (grant
