L&M Seminar – Alexandra Landsman – High harmonic generation at metal-insulator interfaces 

S7.06 Strand Campus King's College London, Strand, London

Tuesday, 5th of September and 14:00, S7.06  Alexandra Landsman, The Ohio State University High harmonic generation at metal-insulator interfaces Abstract:    We investigate the field-induced dielectric break-down at the Mott-insulator/metal interface using high harmonic generation, emitted when the interface is subjected to an ultrafast laser pulse. We show that the intensity of high harmonic emission correlates closely with... Read more »

Light & Matter Seminar: Professor Edward Laird – A coherent mechanical oscillator pumped by a suspended quantum dot

S7.06 Strand Campus King's College London, Strand, London

Those external to King's should email this address to gain access to the building. Join Professor Edward Laird from Lancaster University for a London for a Light & Matter Seminar entitled 'A coherent mechanical oscillator pumped by a suspended quantum dot.' Abstract: Nanomechanical resonators are sensitive detectors for tiny forces and masses. Among the most sensitive resonators... Read more »
