Shashank Kumar's recent work centers on ultrafast optical spectroscopy and how laser light interacts with matter, including theoretical studies of how quantum and classical light probe molecular and material properties, and experiments on strong-field driven changes in electronic band structure in materials. Earlier work in the record covers quantum key distribution (secure communication using quantum physics) and wireless sensor networks, suggesting a shift over time toward ultrafast laser-matter physics.
