Quantum and Classical Light-Matter Interactions in Nanophotonic Devices

Due: May 1, 2025

$82,764

Description

Nanofabrication technology can be used to create chip-based optical resonators in which light is confined to wavelength-scale dimensions for thousands of optical cycles. The resulting large per photon intracavity field strength, long photon storage time, and manipulation of the phase and group velocity of light, in combination with the device scalability and integration afforded by modern fabrication methods, provides several opportunities for applications in quantum and classical information processing, sensing, and metrology.

Grantor Contact InformationKartik Srinivasan - Phone: 301.975.5938Grantor Emailkartik.srinivasan@nist.govOther Grantor InformationThe NRC Research Associateship Programs (RAP) are prestigious postdoctoral and senior research awards designed to provide promising scientists and engineers with high-quality research opportunities at federal laboratories and affiliated institutions. Conducted by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine's Fellowships Office since 1954, these programs offer a comprehensive research experience through a rigorous selection process. The programs aim to: 1) Offer promising postdoctoral and senior scientists/engineers the chance to pursue self-directed research aligned with sponsoring laboratories' goals, 2) Enhance comprehensive research efforts of participating laboratories, 3) Provide recent doctoral graduates a platform for focused research collaboration with permanent laboratory staff, and 4) Foster professional growth by providing opportunities to gain skills, experience, and connections with leading scientists, ultimately enhancing career prospects in academia, industry, or government research roles. The programs provide mentorship, access to state-of-the-art facilities, and opportunities to influence government policy.

Additional InformationLocation: Physical Measurement Laboratory, Microsystems and Nanotechnology Division, Gaithersburg, MD 20899. Measurements are performed in our labs on the NIST Gaithersburg campus and the NIST/UMD Joint Quantum Institute on the University of Maryland campus. Our projects involve a number of NIST, university, and industry collaborators, and there is opportunity for significant collaboration with other scientists and engineers within NIST, on both the Gaithersburg and Boulder campuses, and at the University of Maryland.
