25. Unlocking Hidden Worlds in Quantum Materials: Metastability Controlled by Textured EUV Excitation

Igor Vaskivskyi (Jozef Stefan Institute)

5/20/26, 11:10 AM

Invited talk

Metastable and long lived hidden electronic orders in quantum materials are rapidly emerging as platforms for next generation technologies, ranging from ultrafast low power memory, quantum information architectures to advanced lithography and tunable X ray optics. However, materials capable of sustaining such persistent phases remain rare, and the microscopic mechanisms that stabilize them are...

48. Probing nonlinear effects at X-ray and EUV wavelenghts

Christina Boemer (Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron DESY)

5/20/26, 11:45 AM

Invited talk

Using modern synchrotron and free-electron laser (FEL) sources, it has become feasible to study a wide range of nonlinear processes in the x-ray regime. With it comes the possibility to transfer ideas from parametric nonlinear optics as well as quantum optics to shorter wavelengths, for which we will explore examples in this talk. Processes of interest comprise x-ray-optical wavemixing (XOWM)...

23. Laser-driven XUV and X-ray sources for coherent imaging, ultrafast dynamics, and emerging nonlinear methods

Jaroslav Nejdl (Extreme Light Infrastructure ERIC)

5/20/26, 12:20 PM

Contributed talk

Laser-driven XUV and X-ray sources provide versatile tools for ultrafast science and open new opportunities for nonlinear methods at short wavelengths. At ELI Beamlines, we are developing a complementary suite of laser-driven sources spanning coherent XUV high-harmonic generation (HHG), characteristic Cu Kα emission, and broadband hard X-ray betatron radiation. The HHG beamline is driven by...
