Dr Hanieh Fattahi (MPI for the Science of Light, Erlangen)
In the first part of my talk I elaborate on Femtosecond Fieldoscopy, a novel metrology for ambient air detection of the electric field of light with high detection sensitivity, dynamic range, petahertz detection bandwidth, and high spatial resolution. These criteria offer unprecedented prospects in label-free spectroscopy and microscopy. In this talk, I present our recent results on the development of the ultrashort source required for Femtosecond Fieldoscopy, highly sensitive detection of biologically relevant molecules in the gas and liquid phase, and our steps toward high-resolution spectro-microscopy. In the second part, I present briefly our current activities on the development of sustainable solar lasers.
