This laser can deliver millions of laser pulses per second, each of which lastsfor tens of femtoseconds (a femtosecond is a millionth or a billionth of a second). The laser can be used to study lightmatterinteractions, for writing nanostructures on surfaces, probing biological cells and sensing the presence of chemicals.It is an optical tool that impacts applications important in medicine, manufacturing, defense and homeland security.1Research Highlights 2006-2007
