On this episode of SciLux, we sit down with Dr. Alexandros Gerakis, a Senior Research and Technology Associate at the Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology (LIST) and an Adjunct Professor at Texas A&M University. Dr. Gerakis shares his fascinating journey from studying optical lattices during his PhD at University College London to his current work pioneering laser diagnostics for neutral gas flows and plasma research.
We explore various applications of lasers, including their use in diagnostics and the manipulation of matter. We also discuss the potential of plasma in fields like nanofabrication and fusion energy.
