The Ultrafast and Nonlinear Optics Lab at Penn State![]()

Research Interests
Our research is devoted to ultrafast and nonlinear optics. In paticular, we have several ongoing programs in nonlinear imaging and spectroscopy (e.g., coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy and holography), nano-femto optics (e.g., nonlinear nanoprobe), supercontinuum generation and its applications (e.g., supercontinuum optical tweezers), and applied optical devices (e.g., compact optical spectrometer).
Coherent anti-Stokes Raman Holography: Three-dimensional imaging without sample scanning!
Nano-Femto Optics: Characterizing the ultra-fast and ultra-small
Chromatic Imaging: Imaging by exploiting the extended depth of focus chromatic aberration
Applied Optics: Development of PDMS based optical devices
Supercontinuum: Optimizating the generation of white light supercontinuum
