Research Overview
My research focuses on ultrafast spectroscopy, quantum materials, and advanced instrumentation. I have led multidisciplinary teams, developed custom optical setups, and applied advanced data analysis to understand the fundamental properties of novel materials.
Key Research Areas
- Ultrafast Spectroscopy: Design and implementation of femtosecond laser systems for probing quantum materials and nanostructures.
- Quantum Materials: Investigation of 2D materials, quantum dots, and their optoelectronic properties.
- Instrumentation: Development of custom microscopes, spectrometers, and automated data acquisition systems.
- Data Science: Application of machine learning and advanced signal processing to large experimental datasets.
- Device Fabrication: Experience with photolithography, CAD, and micro/nanofabrication techniques.
Selected Projects
- Led the design and commissioning of a new ultrafast laser laboratory at Monash University.
- Developed a Fourier imaging microscope for advanced photonic measurements (Notre Dame).
- Synthesized and characterized core-shell quantum dots for optoelectronic applications (UC Merced).
- Consulted on biomedical sensor design for industry partners.
