Kirk Larsen
Associate Scientist, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory
BioI am an associate staff scientist in the Laser Science Department of the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. I work on developing tunable few-cycle UV light sources using soliton dynamics and resonant dispersive wave emission in hollow core fibers. I am involved in photoinjector research for LCLS-II, focusing on temporal x-ray pulse shaping to support the extension of attosecond capabilities to high repetition rate. I also work on developing plasma based attosecond XUV light sources at FACET-II.
