High spatial resolution measurement of large aperture optics using Hartmann sensors and aperture stitching. The PhD-program in physics provides an education within experimental and theoretical physics and aims at giving the candidates a broad professional background in physics. Mid-infrared laser sources are nowadays extremely attractive for many applications such as spectroscopy, surgery, laser cutting or defense technologies, due to the presence of many molecular absorptions in this wavelength window. Research areas . The theoretical foundations include relativistic quantum many-particle systems and relativistic quantum transport. In particular, recent space missions carry instruments like Chemcam, ALADIN, Pharao and SuperCam that use and will use high power nanosecond lasers in order to achieve performances that cannot be obtained with classical light sources. PhD Theses Main content [85] Stefan Hrisafov, “High-power few-cycle near-infrared OPCPA as a source for high repetition rate soft X-rays”, 30. PhD students will have the opportunity to work in a completely new area of fundamental physics based on high power lasers. Accordion. The candidate can focus the program towards a variety of topics based on ongoing research activities at the Department of Physics. Oct. 2020 (Diss ETH Nr. In recent years, the Optics & Lasers department of the CORIA laboratory has explored different approaches for the generation ultrashort pulses in the PhD training will be given through advanced courses via the SUPA Graduate School, and tailor made residential courses, involving collaborators, for in-depth research and transferable skills training.

PhD Positions: Ultrafast Lasers Team. Our goal is to develop a new class of compact frequency comb devices for sensing applications in science, industry, and biomedical diagnostics. A new laser beam profiler that can simultaneously measure all beam parameters. The lifetime of the high power photonics instruments A new system for high-precision measurement of spherical (and aspheric) optics. The laser as a key enabling technology has entered space applications since some time now. Press Tab to navigate to entries, then Enter to open or collapse content. Mid-infrared laser sources are nowadays extremely attractive for many applications such as spectroscopy, surgery, laser cutting or defense technologies, due to the presence of many molecular absorptions in this wavelength window. Biological polymers and bionanotechnology. In recent years, the Optics & Lasers department of the CORIA laboratory has explored different approaches for the generation ultrashort pulses in the We are seeking PhD candidates to conduct experimental research in optical frequency combs and ultrafast lasers. One focus of laser physics and quantum optics is therefore the theoretical investigation of the nonlinear properties of the quantum vacuum in ultra-intensive laser light. A new 'optical lock-in camera' for frequency-selective imaging of coherent light-fields.
