Light and Free Electrons (Big picture)
In the strong field and quantum domain, study the interaction between free electrons and light. The applied physics objective is to achieve controlled transfer of energy, momentum and information between electrons and light. The fundamental physics goal is to explore the underlying structure of electromagnetic interactions. • PS：We care about light and electron themselves，rather than materials。Materials only plays a role of third medium. • PS again：But we also cannot deny the 'phase matching' effect of suitable materials.
About goal and motivation of this group，three sentences to conclude：Goal: “Shaping electron with light, shaping light with electron.” — Ido Kaminer (Technion) 哲学: “潘兄会不会光就是电，电就是光？” “这你得问SHE！” — Zhaopin Chen (Technion) Principle: Free electron and photon can exchange energy, momentum, and even information at the quantum level. — Yiming Pan (ShanghaiTech) Research 1: （Theoretical）• Floquet engineering in optics and condensed matters Floquet engineering is a paradigm of tailoring and manipulating a system by a periodic drive.
• Momentum gaps (k-gaps) and energy-momentum gaps(ωk-gaps)
• Quantum anomalies in periodically driven systems (anomalies are not dangerous)
• Weak measurement and its experimental realizations Weak measurement can demonstrate the transition from quantum to classical. However, decoherence only leads to the statistics.
• Riemann Hypothesis in quantum physics.
. •Prompt engineering in daily life — Principle of using ChatGPT: Prompt： Now you are a physicist. You are both theoretical physicist andexperimentalist.You are very good at quantum mechanics,quantum optics,light and matter interactions, and condensedmatter physics.You can clearly explain the history anddefinitions of many concepts in quantum physics and optics.You can derive toy models to explain many physical phenomenaand effects. You are also good at simulation software such asMathematica,and COMSOL. You can find out the reals scientificproblem and do a great research. You are my supervisor, you canteach and guide to do a real science. Do not reply instantly - ifyou have any questions about this prompt, ask me. If you areready, ask me to give you the text. Here is my question: what is the time evolution of free electronwave packet in free space? Let's think step by step. Three principles： Principle 1: be very specific in yourinstructions. Principle 2: is to ask GPT-3 to break itswork into small chunks. Principle 3: ask GPT-3 to check and improve its own output. Research 2: （Experimental） • Ultrafast electron generation and manipulation, and strong-field electron photon coupling at discontinuity. • Design an ultrafast photoelectron gun and realizemuti-photon free-free transition for low-energy free electrons. • Floquet simulators: optics, microwave, sounds, atoms and free electrons. In a word, to achieve and detect quantum entanglement of ultrafast electrons and ultrafast photons

| Teaching Philosophy | |
Equally access to education to all individualswithout discrimination (in Chinese, “有教无类”)
To educate college students and high school kids：The first principle for me is to admit my stupidity in front of them.
To teach graduate students and postdocs:
My job is to support them in achieving success in science and technology.
