Dissertation: "Probing surfaces and interfaces by nonlinear optical spectroscopy with time, energy, and phase resolution" describes a new technique for investigating novel materials for renewable energy applications.
Norc At The University Of Chicago – Bismarck, ND,
- Conceived and developed a novel spectroscopic tool for investigating the efficiency of materials used for photovoltaics, renewable energy and electronics.
- Programmed a suite of analysis functions to process hundreds of spectral data sets each containing over 300K data points.
- Partnered with 3 collaborators in academic and industrial institutions across various disciplines.
- Supervised the successful dismantling, relocation, and reconstruction of over $500K worth of scientific equipment.
- Consulted with coworkers to troubleshoot their experiment and created a plan to resolve problems which resulted in the proper functioning of a $200K laser system.
Natural Resources Defense Council – Washington, DC,
- Designed an automated procedure for measuring laser spot size, improving accuracy and decreasing measurement time by 80%.
- Utilized unused lab equipment to construct a NIR fluorescence spectrometer, enabling co-workers to study fluorescent properties of quantum dots.
University Of Wisconsin-Madison – City, STATE,
- Directed a project to enrich phosphorylated peptides using high-surface-area materials with the aim of investigating biological pathways associated with heart disease and cancer, resulting in 2 first author publications with 74 citations and 1 patent.
- Partnered with 5 collaborators from various disciplines across the university.
- Editors choice award for the paper "Charge transfer excitons at van der waals interfaces.", 2015.
- Selected after a three-round application process to network with scientists around the globe, 2012.
- Department of energy graduate fellowship award, 2011. Hamilton Robert Graduate Recruitment Fellowship, 2009.
