OBJECTIVE


 
Science and/or R&D position in an industrial setting seeking for professional expertise in optics, photonics, physics, chemistry, and leadership skills.
 

EDUCATION


Postdoc, Electrical Engineering (Photonics), California Institute of Technology
    PhD, Physical Chemistry, University of California Irvine
      BS, Applied Physics, Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology

        EXPERIENCE


        • Ultrafast laser systems: Ti:Sapphire oscillator, Ti:Sapphire based chirped pulse amplification (CPA) system, optical parametric amplifiers (OPA), pulse compressors, and pulse characterization techniques.
        • Laser spectroscopy methods: Four-wave mixing (FWM): transient grating, coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS). Laser induced fluorescence (LIF), transient absorption (TA), linear absorption and Raman.
        • Instrument control, data acquisition, scientific apparatus, and interfacing to PC.
        • Vacuum technologies and mass spectrometry: vacuum systems including cryostats, molecular beams coupled to time-of-flight (TOF) mass spectrometer, matrix-assisted laser desorption and ionization (MALDI) spectrometry.
