State of the art optics delivery, delay lines, spectrometers, pulse characterization, frequency doubling, etc. facilities. These are coupled with a Newport 4 axis computer controlled stage for studying the fundamental physics of ultrafast ablation and the thermal and mechanical response of the material and the ejected material/plasma. We are currently using an Andor spectrometer for studying Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy.
