Atomic, molecular and optical (AMO) physics explores the quantum behaviour of electrons, atoms and light, and their mutual interactions across energy, length and time scales. In atoms and molecules, ...

Terahertz (THz) wave generation has emerged as a frontier in both fundamental physics and practical applications, spanning imaging, spectroscopy and high-speed telecommunications. Central to these ...

Quasi-one-dimensional polar materials can potentially exhibit interesting properties such as pronounced non-linear optical responses like second harmonic generation and optical rectification. A ...
