Canadian Wins Nobel Prize in Physics!

Strickland and Mourou published their pioneering work "Compression of Amplified Chirped Optical Pulses" in 1985 while Strickland was still a doctoral student under Mourou. This high- intensity laser technique has enabled doctors to perform millions of corrective laser eye surgeries.
