Biography
Séraphine Oakley is a theoretical PhD student in the Attosecond Physics group in the Department of Physics at King’s College London.
She has previously completed an integrated masters degree (MSci) in Physics and Philosophy at the same university.
She conducted her final year physics masters project under the supervision of Dr Amelle Zair on the disentanglement of two interference effects – Quantum Path Interference and Maker Fringes – both arising from specific yet different conditions in the process of high-order harmonic generation.
Her PhD will continue in the field of Attosecond Physics and will focus on the intersection of high-order harmonic generation and structured light.
