This book delivers up-to-date reviews of progress in ultrafast intense laser science, an expanding interdisciplinary research field spanning atomic and molecular physics, molecular science, solid state physics, and optical science, which has been stimulated by the recent developments in ultrafast laser technologies. Each volume compiles peer-reviewed articles authored by researchers at the forefront of their own subfields of ultrafast intense laser science. Every chapter opens with an overview of the topics to be discussed, so that researchers unfamiliar to the subfield, as well as graduate students, can grasp the importance and attractions of the research topic at hand; these are followed by reports of cutting-edge discoveries. The eighteenth volume covers a broad range of topics from this interdisciplinary research field, focusing on molecular photoionization, atoms and molecules in intense laser fields, excitation processes in intense laser fields, photonics and materials, high-order harmonics generation, light-matter interaction, XFEL and high-power lasers, and quantum computing.
Kaoru Yamanouchi is currently Emeritus Professor of the University of Tokyo and Director of Institute of Attosecond Laser Facility, the University of Tokyo. His research fields are in physical chemistry, especially intense laser science, attosecond laser science, laser spectroscopy, chemical reaction dynamics, and quantum computing of atomic and molecular systems. In 1996, he launched a new research project to investigate how atoms, molecules, and clusters respond to an intense laser field. By developing new experimental techniques such as mass-resolved momentum imaging, pulsed gas electron diffraction, and coincidence momentum imaging, he has continued a successful exploration of the new research field of ultrafast intense laser science. Among his discoveries, ultrafast structural deformation of molecules and ultrafast hydrogen atom migration within hydrocarbon molecules are noteworthy.
Crina Cojocaru received her Ph.D. in Physics from the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC), Barcelona, 2002. After two years as Marie Curie post-doc researcher at LPN-CNRS, Paris, France, she returned at UPC, first as Lecturer, Associate Professor, and Full Professor since 2022. Her research covers different aspects of optics and photonics and focuses to ultrashort laser pulse nonlinear optics in a variety of materials (photonic crystals, nanomaterials, metasurfaces). She leads the Nonlinear Optics and Lasers laboratory. For over 25 years, she made contributions to several subjects: 1) nonlinear effects in photonic crystals and modulated materials; 2) nonlinear effects at nanometric scale; 3) ultrashort laser pulse characterization; 4) active nonlinear devices; 5) diffraction control in photonic crystals; (5) laser induced ultrasound for non-destructive testing and 3D defect reconstruction.
Maciej Lewenstein graduated from Warsaw University in 1978. He joined the Centre for Theoretical Physics of the Polish Academy of Sciences in Warsaw, where he remained for 15 years and became a professor in 1993. He finished his Ph.D. in Essen in 1983 and habilitated in 1986 in Warsaw. He has spent several long-term visits at Universität Essen, at Harvard University with Roy J. Glauber, at Commisariat a l'Énergie Atomique in Saclay with Anne L'Huillier, and at Joint Institute for Laboratory Astrophysics at Boulder. He was in the faculty of CEA in Saclay (1995 1998) and of the Leibniz University Hannover (1998 2005). In 2005, he moved to Catalonia as a ICREA research professor to lead the quantum optics theory at the Institut de Ciències Fotòniques (ICFO) in Castelldefels.
Gerhard G. Paulus studied physics at the University of Munich. While working at the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics, he received his Ph.D. in 1995 and the venia legendi in 2002. His thesis advisor was the late Herbert Walther. In 2003, he was appointed associate professor at Texas A&M University (USA) and in 2007 full professor at the University of Jena (Germany). He is a co-founder of the Helmholtz-Institute Jena and belongs to its board of directors. Paulus has authored a considerable number of highly cited works. In particular, he is known for the discovery of the plateau in above-threshold ionization spectra, the twin-effect of the high-harmonic plateau, and for his work on the detection, measurement, and application of the carrier-envelope phase of few-cycle pulses.
Chang Hee Nam, professor emeritus of GIST and honorary research fellow of IBS, received his Ph. D. in plasma physics from Princeton University in 1988. After working at Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory as a staff research physicist until 1989, he joined Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) as a faculty member and became a full professor in 1998. He started the Coherent X-ray Research
