My group's research efforts focus on the use of strong laser fields (in particular in the near-infrared and terahertz range) to manipulate quantum materials out of equilibrium on the ultrafast time scales. The response of these materials is probed with femtosecond lasers or femtosecond x-ray pulses generated at free electron lasers. Particular focus is dedicated to the investigation of spin dynamics in condensed matter.
