To look at some of my recently published papers , go to the links below:
"Soft X-ray-Driven Femtosecond Molecular Dynamics", Science (2007) Vol 317 pages 1374-1378
(A news highlight of this work appeared in Nature Photonics 1, 609 (2007) )
"Observing the Creation of Electronic Feshbach Resonances in Soft X-ray Induced O2 Dissociation", Science (2008) Vol 322 Pages 1081-1085
Presently we are setting up new experiments at UA physics department which will be used to probe femtosecond and attosecond dynamics
in atoms, molecules and solids (see pictures and text below).
We have set up a Ti:Sa oscillator and amplifier system capabale of delivering 1-3 mJ pulse energy at 3-1 kHz repetition rates and
with pulse duration ~30 fs. We are testing a pulse compression line which will allow us to generate few cycle (5-10fs) laser pulses.
We have also set up a high harmonic based EUV pulse generation scheme and associated EUV routing and delivery beamlines.
We have tested this set up and it works well.
We have started experiments using a home made EUV spectrometer, and we expect to have an electron spectrometer running soon.
