Grant: Canada Research Chairs
Université d'Ottawa
$200,000.00
Molecular Photonics
FY 2024-25
Summary
Electronic dynamics in molecules occurs on ultrafast time scales and their coupling to atomic motions governs photochemistry, vision, charge transfer, light harvesting etc. Based on two major CFI investments, this program brings powerful new ultrafast techniques to the study of molecular electronic dynamics and coherent nonlinear microscopy. First is the extension to Ultrafast Xray Absorption Spectroscopy, revealing electronic dynamics on the fastest time scales. Valence Time-Resolved Photoelectron Spectroscopy will likewise be extended to higher energies and faster time scales. Second is a Multimodal Stimulated Raman Microscopy Laboratory for developing enhanced chemical imaging methods and applying these to Biophotonics and Geophotonics.
