Sheikh Rubaiat Ul Haque
Postdoctoral Scholar, Photon Science, SLAC
BioRubaiat received his undergraduate degree in Applied Physics from the University of Tokyo in 2017. He then moved to the University of California San Diego where he finished his PhD in Physics under Professor Richard Averitt in 2023. During his PhD, he performed time-resolved broadband terahertz spectroscopy on excitonic insulator candidate Ta2NiSe5 where he demonstrated light-induced terahertz parametric amplification and photonic time crystal state mediated by phonon squeezing. He has also worked on the optical control of plasmonic modes in semiconducting metamaterials. Currently, Rubaiat is a postdoctoral scholar at Stanford University working with Professors Tony Heinz and Aaron Lindenberg on the strong-field lightwave-driven dynamics of low-dimensional materials. His research interests also include cavity QED and Floquet engineering of quantum materials.

Christian Heide
Postdoctoral Scholar, Photon Science, SLAC
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy current research focuses on light-matter interactions on extremely fast time scales (femto- and attoseconds). This includes ultrafast current injection and the generation of high harmonics in two-dimensional materials like TMDCs and layered heterostructures.

Tom Hopper
Postdoctoral Scholar, Photon Science, SLAC
BioTom Hopper is a Postdoctoral Scholar in Photon Science at SLAC National Accelerator Lab. After completing a Masters degree in Chemistry at Newcastle University, he became the first graduate student of Artem Bakulin at Imperial College London, which began with building a brand new femtosecond laser suite for the Chemistry department, and culminated in numerous awards for his thesis on ultrafast photophysics in organic, hybrid and nanoscale materials and devices. Following an EPSRC Doctoral Prize Fellowship in the same lab, he joined the group of Aaron Lindenberg at Stanford University in 2021 as a TomKat Postdoctoral Fellow in Sustainable Energy, continuing research into energy transport in emerging photovoltaics. Tom currently works with Adi Natan and Kelly Gaffney at SLAC, where he is developing pulse sequences to exert coherent control of photochemical structural and solvation dynamics, and image these processes with the world’s brightest X-rays at the LCLS free electron laser.
