measuring electron motion
as nobody could before
In particular, the so-called “lightwave electronics” takes advantage of precisely controlled, ultrafast ionization and photoinjection to push the speed limits of electronics up to the petahertz domain. For such applications, it is essential to know how to confine ionization to a possibly short time interval. Although much research has been done to understand strong-field ionization, new theoretical and experimental approaches provide an exciting opportunity to deepen our understanding of this process. The goal of this theoretical project is to investigate a novel approximation for strong-field ionization using codes such as tRecX and SALMON.
