Outline

Light-induced chemical and biological processes start with attosecond electron dynamics, which subsequently triggers nuclear motion on femto- to picosecond time scales, leading to chemical reactions. We make full use of our state-of-the-art real-time first-principles simulations, ultra-broadband intense femto- and attosecond laser technology, and ultrafast time-resolved spectroscopy, with a goal to observe the whole reaction dynamics from the electron wave packet motion to molecular structure change and to control chemical reactions using light at will.
