Research summary
AI-generated

Timothy D. Scarborough works in experimental and theoretical molecular physics, using ultrafast laser techniques to study how molecules respond to intense light pulses. His work focuses on high-harmonic spectroscopy and strong-field ionization, which are methods for probing the electronic structure and dynamics of molecules like carbon dioxide, carbonyl sulfide, and various substituted benzenes on extremely short timescales. This research aims to understand how molecular shape and electronic properties influence how molecules absorb and re-emit light.
