Parameter extraction of excitonic response in quantum materials
Project Description
Ultrafast laser pulses have proven an advantageous tool to uncover complex interaction and unlock novel functionalities in quantum materials. This is largely made possible by the superb temporal resolution of modern femetosecond laers for triggering novel non-equilbirum phase transitions. In this project, the participants will analyze transmission spectra by following established methodology, in order that binding energy of exciton in quantum materials can be determined.
