Anton Husakou

Dr. Anton Husakou is a Researcher at the Max Born Institute for Nonlinear Optics and Short Pulse Spectroscopy, Berlin, where he leads the Attosecond Theory Group. His primary roles include Project Member in the 'Fundamentals of Extreme Photonics' and 'Ultrafast Laser Physics and Nonlinear Optics' initiatives. He holds a PhD in Physics from Freie Universität Berlin (2002) and a diploma in Physics from Belarus State University (1999).

His research focuses on nonlinear optics in fibers/waveguides, nanooptics in metallic nanostructures, and strong-field phenomena in solids and gases. Notable contributions include theoretical models for supercontinuum generation, high-harmonic generation (HHG), and ultrafast plasma dynamics. He develops numerical methods to simulate spatiotemporal light dynamics, with applications in THz photonics and attosecond science.

His articles emphasize ultrafast laser-matter interactions, plasma formation in dielectrics, and plasmonic effects in nanocomposites. Recent work explores ionization dynamics in solids and tunable UV/THz pulse generation through transient plasmonic resonances.

Dr. Husakou collaborates widely, with over 100 publications in top journals like Nature Physics, Physical Review A, and Optics Express. While no formal awards are listed, his work is foundational to attosecond science and extreme nonlinear optics.
