Eleftherios Goulielmakis (Ελευθέριος Γουλιελμάκης) is a Greek physicist specializing in lasers. He is a professor of physics at the University of Rostock, Germany where he currently leads the research activities of the Extreme Photonics group. Previously, he was the head of the research group "Attoelectronics" at the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics in Garching, Germany.
He obtained his Bachelor´s and Master´s degree in physics and optoelectronics respectively from the University of Crete, Greece and the PhD degree (Dr. rer. nat.) from Ludiwig-Maximilans-Universität (LMU) in Munich in 2005.
For his work on the attosecond control and synthesis of light waves he has been awarded the Georgios Foteinos Prize of the Academy of Athens in 2007,[1] the International Union of Pure and Applied Physics Young Scientist Prize in Optics of the International Commission for Optics in 2009, the Gustav Hertz Prize of the Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft (DPG) in 2013.[2][3][4][5][6][7][8] and the Röntgen Prize of the Justus-Liebig-University of Giessen in 2015.[9]
