Using a laser that is frequency-locked to a Fabry-Perot etalon of high finesse and stability, we probe the 5d10 6s 2S_1/2 (F=0) - 5d9 6s 2D_5/2 (F=2) Delta-m_F = 0 electric-quadrupole transition of a single laser-cooled 199Hg+ ion stored in…
We present echelle observations of the intrinsic UV absorption lines in the Seyfert galaxy NGC 4151, which were obtained with the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) on the Hubble Space Telescope on 1999 July 19. The UV continuum…
We present a new technique using a frequency comb laser and optical cavities for performing ultrafast transient absorption spectroscopy with improved sensitivity. Resonantly enhancing the probe pulses, we demonstrate a sensitivity of…
We present a modified approach to laser optical-feedback cavity-enhanced absorption spectroscopy. The technique involves continuously scanning the length of a high-finesse cavity to periodically lock a diode laser to the cavity resonance,…
Two ultracompact H II regions (IRAS 19181+1349 and 20178+4046) and one compact molecular clump (20286+4105) have been observed at far infrared wavelengths using the TIFR 1 m balloon-borne telescope and at mid infrared wavelengths using ISO.…
Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE) data is used to investigate the molecular hydrogen (H_2) content of intermediate-velocity clouds (IVCs) in the lower halo of the Milky Way. We analyze interstellar absorption towards 56 (mostly…
We introduce a wide field hyperspectral microscope using the Fourier-transform approach. The interferometer is based on the Translating-Wedge-Based Identical Pulses eNcoding System (TWINS) [Opt. Lett. 37, 3027 (2012)], a common-path…
The Infrared Spectrograph (IRS) on board the Spitzer Space Telescope observed about 15,000 objects during the cryogenic mission lifetime. Observations provided low-resolution (R~60-127) spectra over ~5-38um and high-resolution (R~600)…
Numerous molecules exhibit unique absorption bands in the fingerprint infrared (IR) region, allowing chemical identification and detection. This makes IR spectroscopy an essential tool in biomedical diagnostics, sensing, and material…
Fourier imaging is an indirect imaging method which records the diffraction pattern of the object scene coherently in the focal plane of the imaging system and reconstructs the image using computational resources. The spatial resolution,…
Optical systems capable of generating fields with sub-wavelength spatial features have become standard in science and engineering research and industry. Pertinent examples include atom- and ion-based quantum computers and optical…
Photonic integration offers the potential to bring complex high-performance optical systems to the form factor of a compact semiconductor chip. However, the range of system functions accessible critically depends on the extent to which…
Coherent extreme ultraviolet (XUV) radiation produced by table-top high-harmonic generation (HHG) sources provides a wealth of possibilities in research areas ranging from attosecond physics to high resolution coherent imaging. However, it…
Protonated water clusters are a common species of atmospheric molecular cluster-ion, produced by cosmic rays throughout the troposphere and stratosphere. Under clear-sky conditions or periods of increased atmospheric ionisation, such as…
This review presents the Laser-Induced Fluorescence Spectroscopy (LIFS) of trapped gas-phase molecular ions. A brief description of the theory and experimental approaches involved in fluorescence spectroscopy, together with state-of-the-art…
Frequency-stabilized mid-infrared lasers are valuable tools for precision molecular spectroscopy. However, their implementation remains limited by complicated stabilization schemes. Here we achieve optical self-locking of a quantum cascade…
Moderate resolution spectra have been recorded for a sample of radio-selected QSOs (z=2.5) discovered in the ``Faint Images of the Radio Sky at Twenty centimeters'' (FIRST) VLA survey. This work is motivated by the study of a heterogeneous…
Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) is the golden standard of mid-infrared (MIR) molecular spectroscopic analysis through optically-encoded vibrational signatures. Michelson-type FTIR and MIR dual-comb spectrometers allow us to…
Using the Tunable Diode Laser Absorption Spectroscopy (TDLAS) 82 CH$_3$I ro-vibrational overtone absorption were detected for the first time between 11660 and 11840 cm$^{-1}$ (844 -- 857 nm), with strengths estimated to be around $10^{-27}$…
Femtosecond transient soft X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy (XAS) is a very promising technique that can be employed at X-ray Free Electron Lasers (FELs) to investigate out-of-equilibrium dynamics for material and energy research. Here we…
