Nonlinear light scattering
How do molecular interfacial properties translate into chemical and physical properties?
A large portion of natural matter exists on a micro- and nanoscopic scale. Living cells, organelles, colloidal systems, emulsions, micelles, nanoparticles and many other systems are composed of (sub)micron sized parts. For such systems, the relative interfacial area - and consequently the importance of interface atoms and molecules - increases. Nonlinear light scattering is a promising method to investigate interface properties of micro- and nanoscopic matter.

powerful pulsed laser


We probe interface molecules using nonlinear optical methods. These methods require powerful pulsed laser sources.




fire ball


When focused, such a short burst of photons breaks down the atoms and molecules in air, which results in a colorful image.
