Spectroscopy of Wide-Bandgap Mesoscopic Materials Characterization by CW and Ultrafast Nonlinear Optics

Due: May 1, 2025

$82,764

Description

Scanning near-field and confocal microscopies provide unique methods of characterizing semiconductor, dielectric, and hybrid optoelectronic materials. The focus is on developing nanoscopic multiphoton spectroscopy and nonlinear optics to examine III-nitride alloy semiconductors, specifically quantum-confined heterostructures in nanowires. Techniques involve UV second-harmonic generation and multiphoton UV spectroscopy using NSOM and confocal methods, studying local defects, polytyping, inversion domains, alloy segregation, and na...

Grantor Contact InformationNorman A. Sanford, Phone: 303-497-5239Grantor Emailnorman.sanford@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.
