Ultrafast dynamics
ATTOLAB aims to establish an experimental laser platform for interdisciplinary studies of ultrafast dynamics – electronic and nuclear dynamics on femtosecond (10-15) and atto (10-18) second time scales – in gas, condensed phase and plasma systems.
Equipment of excellence
ATTOLAB was an Equipex funded by the “Investissements d’Avenir 2011” programme of the French National Research Agency (ANR) from 2012 to 2019. The project brings together nine partners from eight supervisory authorities. It is coordinated by the Interactions, Dynamics and Lasers Laboratory
