A lab that explores the interaction between light and matter through theory and computation.
AboutAbout the lab
Exploring theoretically how light can control phases of matter
The Theoretical Optical Physics Lab studies, through theory and computation, phenomena arising from the interaction between laser light and condensed matter systems such as semiconductors and molecular crystals.
In particular, from the perspectives of nonequilibrium quantum dynamics and quantum control, the lab aims to explore new physical phenomena created by the interaction between light and condensed phases, and to extend them to applications.
On the lab's website, it is introduced as the Hino-Maeshima "Theoretical Optical Physics" Lab.
Key terms
- Condensed matter systems
- Collections of a large number of atoms or molecules, such as semiconductors and molecular crystals
- Nonlinear optical processes
- Responses that occur when intense laser light is applied to a material and that are not simply proportional to the light intensity
- Nonequilibrium quantum dynamics
- How a quantum system driven away from a stable state by light or other means changes over time
- Quantum control
- Manipulating the state of a quantum system exactly as intended
ResearchResearch themes
With advances in laser technology, such as higher light intensities and ultrashort pulses, a research field is emerging that aims to control the state of matter with light and to design and create new materials. This lab studies phenomena arising from nonlinear optical processes between lasers and condensed matter systems, using the methods of theoretical physics and computational physics.
