Insects have a remarkably sensitive and sophisticated olfactory system providing information regarding the surrounding chemical world. The insect odorant receptors (ORs) are the most sensitive olfactory receptors recorded. Studying the molecular mechanism involved in insect olfaction provides insights...
In this thesis, we have made a contribution towards the development of spatiotemporal, nonlinear optics. Contributions in the field of spatiotemporal pulse generation and analysis have been driven by the quest for the observation, characterization, and understanding of various families of discrete Light...
