Mukamel is known for his work in the field of nonlinear optics, especially the time domain extensions which culminated in the book entitled Principles of Nonlinear Optical Spectroscopy (1995). His works covers topics ranging from excitons to multi-dimensional spectroscopy, and femto– and attosecond spectroscopy. During his career, he has published more than 1000 scientific papers.^{[citation needed]}

Mukamel has received prizes and distinctions including the Alexander von Humboldt Research Award,^[6] the Hamburg Prize for Theoretical Physics,^[7] and the Ahmed Zewail ACS Award in Ultrafast Science and Technology.^[8]
