Congratulations to Prof. Paul Corkum.

Frontiers in Optics 2006 (FiO) – Laser Science XXII (LS) – The 90th OSA Annual Meeting: "Arthur L. Schawlow Prize and Lecture

Arthur L. Schawlow Prize: The Schawlow Prize recognizes outstanding contributions to basic research that use lasers to advance our knowledge of the fundamental physical properties of materials and their interaction with light.

2006 Recipient: The Division of Laser Science of the American Physical Society awards the 2006 Arthur L. Schawlow Prize in Laser Science to Paul B. Corkum for seminal contributions to the development of ultrasoft, intense laser-field science, including his development of the recollision model for laser-matter interactions, and his leadership in the emerging field of attosecond laser science.
