ExP Lab Meets Nobel Laureate Gérard Mourou

The members of the ExP Lab had an opportunity to meet Gérard Albert Mourou, 2018 Nobel Laureate in Physics. Mourou, along with his doctoral student Donna Strickland, was awarded the 2018 Nobel Prize in Physics for the invention of chirped pulse amplification, a technique later used to create ultra-short, high-intensity laser pulses.
