Jennifer Ogilvie

Professor Ogilvie develops multidimensional optical spectroscopy and nonlinear microscopy methods that exploit the interactions between ultrafast (~10^-15 s) pulses and matter. These methods require the generation, measurement, and control of sequences of ultrafast pulses over a wide range of frequencies. Multidimensional spectroscopies reveal inhomogeneity, structure, and ultrafast dynamics that are obscured in lower-dimensional measurements. The Ogilvie group applies these powerful spectroscopic approaches to study the ultrafast energy transport and conversion processes in natural and artificial light-harvesting systems.
