Development of novel multilayer optics
research activities — Ever since their invitation more than two decades ago, dispersive dielectric multilayer mirrors (DMs), have played a pivotal role in the progress of ultrafast science. Their ability to manipulate phase and spectral amplitude in broad spectral ranges has enabled synthesis of intense few-cycle optical pulses, triggering remarkable advances in …

tools, techs & labs — We pursue 1) the development of broadband dispersive optics permitting the shaping of few-cycle waveforms within the wave cycle and their compression to durations shorter than the carrier period (sub-cycle waveforms) 2) the development of broadband multilayer optics exhibiting both high damage threshold and high reflectivity for …
