♦ Objective. Identification of new materials, quantum electronic processes and resonator design for:

                ● Enhanced emission efficiency;
                ● Extension of emission wavelength range (UV, VIS, IR, THz);
                ● Tunable emission;
                ● Diversification of temporal regime of laser emission;
                ● Extension of power or energy range;
                ● Enhanced laser beam quality.

♦ Processes

                ● Modelling and experimental investigation of laser emission and heat generation processes function on the properties of the material
(doping concentration, size) and pumping conditions (wavelength, intensity);
                ● Sensitised emission processes;
                ● Narrow-band (laser or diode laser ) and broad-band (including solar radiation) pumping process;
                ● Nonlinear bulk processes: frequency mixing or multiplication, parametric oscilation;
                ● Nonlinear quantum processes: quantum splitting, upconversion, photon avalanche;
                ● Active (electro-optic, acousto-optic) and passive (saturable absorption) Q-switching and mode-locking;
                ● Low-heat laser emission and laser cooling processes;
                ● Quantum electronic processes with multifunctional and integrated laser materials.
