Aims of the project: Laser spectroscopy provides us with valuable information about materials and processes in nature. Current techniques are, for instance, able to measure ultrafast absorption dynamics with a high spatial resolution. These methods are, however, often very complex and require a time-consuming acquisition. Compressed sensing is a concept able to highly reduce the acquisition time, while preserving the amount of obtained information. The concept employs coding via random pattern and computational data extraction. A laser beam provides a simple means of obtaining such coding patter via random interference of wavefronts (laser speckles). Use of this aspect has potential to greatly simplify the compressed sensing application. In this project we will, therefore, focus on exploiting the random interference to obtain a spatial and temporal resolution in the photoluminescence and transient absorption measurements. We will study advantages and limiting factors of the approach. Based on the knowledge we will develop and test a set of new techniques – ultimately, extending potential of spectroscopy.
