Chercheurs posant une enceinte à vide sur des composants optiques au LOA

Research scientists placing the vacuum chamber onto the optical components within the Attolab platform, at the Applied Optics Laboratory (LOA), in Palaiseau. This platform is devoted to interdisciplinary studies of ultrafast dynamics (electronic and nuclear dynamics at femtosecond and attosecond timescales) in gaseous, condensed and plasma phase systems. Attolab combines high-performance ultra-short light sources, comprising femtosecond infrared laser chains and attosecond secondary sources in the extreme-UV range. It calls upon advanced facilities, both for the development and operation of ultra-short pulse lasers and for the manufacture of optics.

CNRS Images,

Our work is guided by the way scientists question the world around them and we translate their research into images to help people to understand the world better and to awaken their curiosity and wonderment.
