The event featured Prof. Markus B. Raschke from the University of Col orado Boulder as the keynote speaker. IEEE Shanghai NTC Chapter Chair Prof . Weida Hu led over 40 chapter members in attending the symposium\, foster ing a dynamic exchange of ideas and insights.\n\nIn his opening remarks\, Chair Weida Hu extended a warm welcome to Prof. Raschke on behalf of the c hapter\, emphasizing the significance of ultrafast nano-imaging technology in advancing nanoscience and quantum material research. He highlighted th e role of such high-level academic exchanges in bridging international exp ertise with local innovation initiatives. During his presentation\, Prof. Raschke elaborated on his team’s pioneering work in developing ultrafast scanning probe microscopy techniques\, which leverage femtosecond laser p ulses to achieve multiscale spatio-temporal optical nano-imaging. This app roach enables the resolution of fundamental excitation processes at natura l scales—femtoseconds and nanometers—in molecular and quantum material s. He illustrated the technology’s capabilities through dynamic imaging data\, showcasing phenomena ranging from few-femtosecond coherent dynamics to nanosecond-scale thermal transport processes.\n\nProf. Raschke further detailed applications of the technology in visualizing nanoscale heteroge neity in functional materials\, such as interlayer coupling dynamics in gr aphene and 2D semiconductors\, as well as electron-phonon and polaron inte ractions in photovoltaic perovskites. His talk also explored extensions of nano-imaging into strong-field regimes and quantum-enhanced sensing\, off ering new perspectives on coherence limits in solid-state quantum systems. \n\nThe symposium concluded with an interactive Q&A session\, where partic ipants engaged Prof. Raschke in discussions on technical challenges\, expe rimental methodologies\, and potential industrial applications. Chair Weid a Hu delivered closing remarks\, noting that the event not only deepened p articipants’ understanding of ultrafast imaging technologies but also la id a foundation for future international collaborations.\n\nCo-organized w ith the State Key Laboratory of Infrared Physics\, the symposium marked a highlight of the IEEE Shanghai NTC Chapter’s 2025 academic series. The c hapter plans to continue facilitating cross-disciplinary dialogues and pro moting innovation in nanotechnology through future events.\n\nCo-sponsored by: Markus B.
