Our research group uses ultrafast optical techniques to develop terahertz-based technologies for condensed matter research, wireless communication, and real-time molecular imaging. Some of our experiments rely on high-power laser sources to investigate fundamental light-matter interactions but we are also interested in the development of compact, cost-effective devices designed for practical applications. We collaborate closely with industry on many projects, ensuring that our research has direct, impactful applications.
