Work History
Research Assistant for Laboratory of Nanophotonics
University of Rochester
01.2024 - Current
- Testing the LiDAR using telecommunication wavelength signal to reconstruct the 2D imaging
- Delivered a MATLAB-drive automated optical measurement system.
- Optimized color coverage in EOM to find the voltage (Vπ) required to induce a π phase difference between the two modulator arms.
Research Assistant
Boston University
06.2024 - 08.2024
- One of 12 attendees among 1200 applicants (paper under review)
- Current technology, including avalanche photodiodes (PDs), photomultiplier tubes (PMTs), and amplified photodiodes cannot simultaneously provide low-photon-flux sensitivity and high bandwidth operation due to limitations in speed, sensitivity, or dynamic range
- Pairing low-noise and high-gain parametric amplification in optical fibers with detection using conventional, high-bandwidth photodiodes
- Observed a >10x increase in sensitivity at bandwidths >10x larger than conventional technologies allowing us to resolve signals as low as 20 photons at 1.6 GHz bandwidth
- This method is drop-in compatible with any light detection system
Teaching Assistants

Research Assistant
ZEISS
05.2023 - 06.2023
- Company Overview: ZEISS is a global leader in optics and optoelectronics
- Finding the best method of measuring refractive index
- Specifically, using Python based on a mechanical control system, I tested different special types of glass (high refractive index, high diopter glasses, and so on)
- Reducing the stress on the glasses’ frame: apply rubber-like materials on the edge of the glass frames
