What is Ahmed Zewail: Femtochemistry Pioneer about?

Ahmed Zewail was an Egyptian scientist who won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1999 for his pioneering work in femtochemistry, which studies chemical reactions on extremely short timescales of femtoseconds. He is considered the father of femtochemistry. Using ultrafast lasers, Zewail was able to observe chemical reactions in real time as they unfolded at the molecular level. One reaction he studied was the decomposition of cyclobutane to ethylene. His work opened up new understanding of chemical processes a
