Mohammed Th. Hassan is an Egyptian-American scientist. He was born in 1983 (Fyoum-Egypt). Mohammed Hassan is an Associate Professor of Physics and Optical Sciences at The University of Arizona (UA)[1]. He is known for developing the attosecond electron microscope "Attomicroscope" with his research time and they were able to image the electron motion in action.[2][3]


Academic career and achievements

[edit]

Mohammed Hassan has a Bachelor and Master of Science degrees from Cairo University in 2003 and 2008. He earned his Ph.D. from Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics, Munich, Germany, under the supervision of Ferenc Krausz and Eleftherios Goulielmakisin 2013. Then, he joined Prof. Ahmed H. Zewail’s (Nobel 1999) group at California Institute of Technology as a postdoctoral scholar through 2017.  Then he started his professorship at the University of Arizona in 2017[4].

Hassan's reach group were able to develop the attosecond electron microscopy “Attomicroscopy”. His team used this tool to image the electron motion in the solid state[5]. This electron imaging promises to open a new era in ultrafast electron imaging and will open a new window to the quantum world. A patent for Attomicroscopy has been granted to Hassan in 2020[6].

Moreover, His team was able to achieve the world record optical switching speed by again exploiting the unique light field synthesis capability developed in his lab[7]. Also, he demonstrated the capability to encode data on ultrafast laser pulses, which paves the way to establish attosecond and femtosecond optoelectronics working at the petahertz speed[8][9].

Furthermore, he established a new methodology to sample the light field of ultrafast laser pulses and a new methodology to measure the electronic delay response in the neutral matter[10].
