Soorya Vinod R. K

I completed my Master's degree in Physics from the Cochin University of Science and Technology (CUSAT), Kochi, Kerala. As part of my master's thesis, I worked at the Ultrashort Pulse High Intensity Laser Laboratory (UPHILL), Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR), Mumbai, under the supervision of Prof. G. Ravindra Kumar. My thesis, titled "Doppler Shift Spectrometry of Laser-Induced Plasmas: A Comparative Study Using 800 nm and Upconverted 400 nm Pump Pulses", focused on investigating laser-induced plasma dynamics using femtosecond pump–probe reflectometry and Doppler shift spectrometry.

I joined the Laboratory for Attosecond SciencEs (LASE) at the Raman Research Institute (RRI) as a Visiting Student, where I worked on ultrafast laser experiments. I currently work as a Research Assistant at LASE, contributing to double-pulse laser–plasma experiments using femtosecond and nanosecond laser pulses, and to the development of the institute's upcoming high-harmonic generation beamline.

My research interests include ultrafast laser–matter interactions, laser-produced plasmas, nonlinear optics, attosecond science and femtosecond laser micro/nano-machining.
