• Development of laser system delivering carrier to envelop (CEP) stable few-cycle pulses in infrared based on optical parametric amplification (OPA)• Pulse post-compression in hollow-core noble-gas-filled fibers (HCF) with support of CEP stablilty

• Initiated and coordinated international research collaboration, managing 4 scientists between 2 international labs (in Sweden and Lithuania) and 1 private company (Lithuania)• Designed and assembled optical setup for study of Vortex THz wave generation from plasma filament formed in air by focused bichromatic femtosecond optical Vortex pulses; also collected and analyzed experimental data; resulted in publication in peer-reviewed journal (Opt. Lett.)• Designed and assembled optical setup for study of influence of laser-preformed plasma filament on THz wave generation from another plasma filament (also noticed the effect, collected and analyzed experimental data); resulted in publication in peer-reviewed journal (Laser Phys.) and presentation at 3 international conferences• Trained Bachelor and Master Students in the THz lab

• Developed versatile system for study of micron sized droplets colliding under gravity, employing optical trapping, spectroscopy, and high-speed imaging; published results in peer-reviewed article (Opt. Express) and presented at 2 international conferences (SPIE optics+ photonics)• Developed new optical method for optical spinning of transparent nonbirefringent droplets to be used with above mentioned system; published results in peer-reviewed article (Opt. Commun.)

• Generated femtosecond optical vortex pulses, and incoherent white light optical vortex beam

• Performed Raman spectroscopy of tobacco and maize.
