Our vision is to implement anemerging theme:use coherent ultrashortlaser pulses to achieve quantumcontrol of material properties and drive non-equilibrium phase transitions at femtosecond timescales via local excitations at nanometer length scales. This cross-cutting theme has merged different disciplines of current focus including quantum magnetism, ultrafast nonlinear optics, condensed matter physics, materials science, physical chemistry, and biological photosynthesis… These provide increasing evidence, both from intellectual and practical point of view, on a paradigm shift for modern physics and technology to engage ultrafast coherent excitation, strong correlation and nonlinearity.
