All-Optical Laser Field Sampling

Case ID:
UA21-185
Invention:

This technology is a system and method configured for measurement of an electronic delay response of a dielectric system triggered by a strong driving optical field of sub-femto-second pulses.  The produced electronic response demonstrates all-optical light field sampling operating with sub femto / attosecond resolution. This invention demonstrates the on-demand quantum electron motion control in solid-state with the use of synthesized waveforms.

Background:
Attosecond pulses generation and spectroscopic measurements in gases and solids open a new window into the study of electronic driven by strong fields in real-time. Understanding electron dynamics and the related phase transition will allow for further study into quicker processing, ultrafast dynamics, and ultrafast systems.

Applications:

  • Quantum electronics
  • Synthesized waveforms and measurements with attosecond resolution
  • Petahertz electronics and data information processing
     

Advantages:

  • Faster; femtosecond and attosecond measurements
  • All-optical field light metrology
