1. Relativistic light-matter interaction
Abstract : During the past decades, the development of laser technology has produced pulses with increasingly higher peak intensities. These can now be made such that their strength rivals, and even exceeds, the atomic potential at the typical distance of an electron from the nucleus. READ MORE

2. Relativistic light-matter interaction
Abstract : In this licentiate thesis light-matter interaction between hydrogen and superintense attosecond pulses is studied. The specific aim here is to identify for what intensities the non-relativistic calculations, given by solving the time dependent Schrödinger equation, no longer are valid. READ MORE

3. Light-Matter Interaction and Quantum Computing in Rare-Earth-Ion-Doped Crystals
Abstract : In this thesis, crystals of yttrium orthosilicate (Y2SiO5) that are randomly doped with another rare-earth element, such as praseodymium (Pr), europium (Eu), or cerium (Ce), are investigated with lasers locked to ultra-stable cavities using the Pound-Drever-Hall locking technique. Many of these rare-earth elements have long-lived 4f-4f transitions, hundreds of microseconds to a few milliseconds, with even longer ground hyperfine lifetimes of up to several days. READ MORE

4. Slow and stopped light by light-matter coherence control
Abstract : In this thesis we study light-matter coherence phenomena related to the interaction of a coherent laser field and the so-called Λ-system, a three-level quantum system (e.g., an atom). We observe electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT), slow and stored light in hot rubidium vapor. READ MORE

5. Light-Matter Interaction on the Attosecond Timescale
Abstract : Attosecond science refers to physical processes that occur on the natural timescale of electron motion in atomic and molecular systems. Attosecond time resolution can be obtained experimentally through a process called high-order harmonic generation where sharp attosecond pulses are formed in the time domain. READ MORE
