Laboratoire Interactions, Dynamiques et Lasers

Research unit

Description

The laboratory is known for its unique themes which group together the fields of physics and chemistry. Composed of multidisciplinary teams, the laboratory is interested in the dynamic phenomena resulting from the interaction of light (laser) with various states of matter, going from the gas phase, the atom or the isolated molecule, to solution, solid or plasma. The sources' spectrum extends from IR to XUV from the continuous mode to XUV attosecond pulses and also includes sources of particles, protons and electrons.
The originality and the innovation around its scientific activities allow collaborations with industries in the field of optics and imaging.
