Abstract
The advancement of laser technology has greatly increased the intensity of focused light over the past seventy years. This has allowed for the study of ultrafast events and has opened up new fields of science and various applications in society. From understanding atomic processes to manipulating particle beams, lasers have had a significant impact in scientific research. However, many laser technologies are now reaching their limits after decades of progress. During this talk, we will present recent results leveraging attosecond-level frequency comb stabilty, such as heterodyne and homodyne detection techniques for quantum sensing applications. We will also review and address the challenges on emerging technologies from first principles quantum electrodynamics to materialize both large-scale facility and compact hard X-ray sources exhibiting attosecond pulse durations to probe electronic dynamics with atomic specificity simultaneously.
