Description
Lene Hau is an internationally acclaimed expert in bosonic condensates, optics and light-matter
interactions, best known for her research in ultraslow light based on Bose-Einstein condensates.
The research led by Hau has opened up new ways to study the fundamental properties of Bose-Einstein condensates, and the remarkable optical properties of such systems that her group has demonstrated have opened a new territory of nonlinear optics at extremely low light levels, with interesting applications in various areas of quantum optics.
Hau is a MacArthur Fellow and a member of the Royal Danish and Royal Swedish Academies of Sciences and has been awarded numerous prizes including Harvard University's George Ledlie Prize.
