Caption

Nonlinear processes allow researchers to control and manipulate light via interactions with matter. Here, sum-frequency generation mixes two colours of light in a crystal to produce a new, third colour. In this new study, FLEET uses nonlinear spectroscopy to control the electronic bandstructure of a single atomic layer.
