DeLTA Lab

The DeLTA lab focuses on understanding complex emergent phenomena in quantum materials and achieving new light-induced long-lived quantum states. Our laser lab deploys an 80 W Light Conversion Carbide and Orpheus-F OPA, able to generate strong sub-100 fs pulses in the 650-900 nm and 1200-2500 nm wavelength range, and a Quantum Design OptiCOOL 2K 7T optical cryostat to perform time-resolved non-linear spectroscopy measurements under extreme environments. Our lab is uniquely integrated with the EQUAL lab to expand its characterization capabilities to the time domain and reveal the dynamics of electrons in quantum materials. We complement our in-house capabilities with resonant inelastic x-ray experiments (RIXS) and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) at free electron lasers and synchrotron facilities.
