Sara Bucht is a PhD student studying physics at the Institute of Optics, building on the research of Donna Strickland '89 (PhD) and Gérard Mourou, winners of the 2018 Nobel Prize in Physics. Strickland earned her doctorate at the Laboratory for Laser Energetics (LLE) with Mourou, an LLE scientist, as her graduate advisor. They were honored for their work developing chirped pulse amplification (CPA), a means of increasing the power of laser pulses. CPA has enabled the modern high-powered precision laser and accompanying research capabilities, along with LASIK eye surgery, smartphone screens, and other aspects of daily life we now take for granted.
