On 09/09/2025 Prof. Anne L’Huillier visited our laboratory. Professor L’Huillier is an absolute pioneer in the field of attosecond physics. In 1987, her team first observed high harmonic generation (HHG) in argon gas. These experiments laid the foundation for subsequent work that led to the generation of single attosecond laser pulses, enabling the observation of ultrafast processes such as the dynamics of electrons in atoms. For her groundbreaking work, she was awarded the 2023 Nobel Prize in Physics, along with Prof. Pierre Agostini and Prof. Ferenc Krausz.

We had a great honour to present to Professor L’Huillier the laser research we do at u.MIR laboratories and other labs of Department of Field Theory, Electronic Circuits and Optoelectronics.

During her visit at Wroclaw Tech, Prof. Anne L’Huillier also gave a great talk on her achievements which can be found here:
