Markus Raschke is a professor at the Department of Physics, Department of Chemistry, and JILA at the University of Colorado at Boulder. The research in his group is on the development of new nano-scale nonlinear and ultrafast spectroscopy techniques to control the light-matter interaction on the nanoscale and image domain order correlated matter. He received his PhD in 2000 from the Max-Planck Institute of Quantum Optics and the Technical University in Munich, Germany. Following research appointments at the University of California at Berkeley, and the Max-Born-Institute in Berlin, he became faculty member at the University of Washington, before moving with his group to Boulder in 2010


Research Description

Experimental nonlinear and ultrafast nano-optics. Spatio-temporal optical control, optical antennas, surface plasmon and phonon polaritons, extreme nonlinear optics, strong light matter interaction. Scanning probe near-field optical microscopy and spectroscopy, optical forces, and opto-thermal phenomena. Dynamics and phase behavior of complex oxides, semiconductor nanostructures, and polymer nano-composites.
