معرفی
Tim Vogel is a PhD candidate at Ruhr-University Bochum's Faculty of Electrical Engineering, affiliated with the Photonics and Ultrafast Laser (PULS) group. He holds B.Sc. and M.Sc. degrees in Physics from Heinrich-Heine University Düsseldorf. His research focuses on high-power terahertz (THz) generation and optimization of THz-Time Domain Spectroscopy (THz-TDS), with a particular emphasis on developing high-average-power THz sources using advanced materials like lithium niobate and organic crystals (e.g., BNA and MNA). His work includes innovations in tilted-pulse-front geometry, air-plasma emitters, and cryogenically cooled systems to enhance THz output power and spectral range.
