Research group Our group works with development and applications of optical frequency comb spectroscopy for broadband precision measurements of molecular spectra and for multispecies detection in combustion environment and under atmospheric conditions.
Our group works with development of new methods of optical frequency comb spectroscopy and their applications in precision measurements of molecular spectra and in trace gas sensing. Currently, our focus is on precision spectroscopy of molecules relevant to astrophysics and atmospheric science. Using mid-infrared comb-based Fourier transform spectroscopy, we provide line lists for molecules such as methane, formaldehyde, nitrous oxide, and halogenated volatile organic compounds. The methyl iodide and formaldehyde data have been included in the 2020 and 2024 updates of the HITRAN database. Using optical-optical double-resonance spectroscopy, we provide unique experimental data for highly excited levels of methane, which is needed to interpret high-temperature spectra from e.g. exoplanets. These data are available in our molecular database and have been included in the ExoMol database.
