This project explores the interaction of light with rapidly changing media, focusing on phenomena such as light amplification and frequency shifting. By manipulating the refractive index, researchers aim to uncover new effects in laser physics and quantum optics.
The interaction of light with matter is traditionally studied in media that are either still or moving at a negligible fraction of the speed of light.
In this regime standard text-book results apply.
However, if the medium or, more generally speaking, certain parameters that distinguish the medium such as the refractive index are made to change or move close to the speed of light then new and unexpected scenarios emerge.
For example, if the medium refractive index is not moving but is made to os…
