  • Introduce
  • 저희 연구실에서는 극한의 고출력 레이저와 플라즈마 간 상호작용에 대한 다양한 연구와 응용 분야 개발에 관심을 두고 있습니다. 주요 연구 분야로는 1) 레이저-플라즈마 차세대 가속기에서 안정적인 전자빔 생성 및 극초단 엑스선 광원 개발 연구, 2) 초강력 레이저와 플라즈마 간 상호작용을 통해 지구에서는 존재할 수 없는 우주의 극한 환경, 예를 들어 블랙홀 주변에서 발생할 수 있는 극한 현상을 실험적으로 구현하는 연구, 3) THz 광원 생성 및 플라즈마 광학 연구, 4) 엑스선 자유전자레이저 모드 개발 및 소형화 연구 활동을 진행하고 있습니다.
  • Our research lab is dedicated to exploring the interaction between extreme intense lasers and plasmas, and to developing various applications in this field. Our main research areas include: (1) the development of stable electron beams and ultrashort X-ray sources for next-generation laser-plasma accelerators, (2) experimental studies on recreating extreme cosmic environments, such as those near black holes, which cannot exist on Earth, (3) the generation of THz radiation and plasma optics and (4) the development of new modes for X-ray free-electron lasers and the miniaturization of systems through integration with next-generation accelerators.
