Felipe Morales Moreno

Dr. Felipe Morales Moreno is a Researcher at the Max Born Institute for Nonlinear Optics and Short Pulse Spectroscopy in Berlin. He holds a PhD in Theoretical Chemistry (2009, Universidad Autónoma de Madrid) and an MSc in Computer Science (2004, Universidad Politécnica de Madrid). He has been a Postdoctoral Fellow in Prof. O. Smirnova's group since 2010 and has been a permanent Scientist at the institute since 2012. His research focuses on strong-field phenomena, attosecond science, and numerical methods, with particular emphasis on high-harmonic spectroscopy and laser-matter interactions.

He leads Project 2.2 (Strong-field Few-body Physics) and contributes to Projects 1.1 (Fundamentals of Extreme Photonics) and 2.3 (Time-resolved XUV Science). His work bridges theoretical and experimental advances, including attosecond pulse generation, spin-polarized electron beams, and chiral light fields.

Notable contributions include ultrafast electron dynamics studies and attoclock techniques for imaging tunneling processes. His research has been supported by fellowships from the Spanish Ministry of Education and features collaborations with leading institutions globally.
