The lab generates terahertz waves with lasers and applies Raman scattering to the life sciences.
AboutAbout the lab
Exploring the world of nonlinear optics induced by lasers
The Nonlinear Photonics Lab studies the generation and application of terahertz waves using lasers, and the application of coherent Raman scattering to life science and medicine.
Laser light can induce a variety of nonlinear optical phenomena.
The lab is also called the Hattori-Kano-You Lab.
In the first year after joining the lab, students take turns presenting and reading English-language technical books on research (mainly optics) until summer vacation.
Key terms
- Terahertz waves
- Electromagnetic waves with frequencies between those of radio waves and light. The lab generates them with lasers and uses them for spectroscopy and imaging.
- Coherent Raman scattering
- A technique that uses laser light to enhance Raman scattering, which probes materials through molecular vibrations, for measurement.
- Nonlinear optical phenomena
- Responses that occur when intense laser light hits a material, in which the effect is not simply proportional to the light intensity.
ResearchResearch themes
The lab studies the generation and application of terahertz waves using lasers, and the application of coherent Raman scattering to life science and medicine. Its listed research themes are the generation of high-power terahertz electromagnetic pulses, terahertz imaging, terahertz spectroscopy of biological materials and other substances, the development of new molecular imaging methods using novel laser sources, and the development of new chirality-sensitive nonlinear Raman spectroscopy methods.
