Quantum chaos using delta kicked systems
(2008-12)
Scope and Method of Study: The purpose of this research was to experimentally study quantum dynamics of systems whose classical dynamics are chaotic. Quantum delta-kicked systems such as kicked rotor and kicked accelerator ...
Quantum chaos with a Bose-Einstein condensate
(2007-07)
Scope and Method of Study: The purpose of this research was to experimentally study a quantum delta-kicked accelerator utilizing a Bose Einstein condensate (BEC) of Rb87 atoms. An all optical method was chosen to create a ...
Investigating optical atom traps for Bose-Einstein condensate
(2006-07)
Scope and Method of Study: The purpose of this research was to make a Bose Einstein condensate (BEC) of Rb87 atoms using an all optical method. Specific attention was given to replacing the traditional magnetic traps with ...
Development and characterization of remote radiation dosimetry systems using optically stimulated luminescence of Al2O3:C and KBr:Eu
(2008-12)
Scope and Method of Study: To develop and test the performance of two different dosimetry systems; one for in situ, high-sensitivity, inexpensive environmental monitoring, and another for near-real-time medical dosimetry. ...
Optical studies of GaN-based light emitting structures
(2005-05)
Scope and Method of Study: The optical properties of group-III Nitrides were systematically studied over a temperature range of 10 to 300 K. A large variety of light sources including femtosecond, picosecond, and nanosecond ...
Calculation of coupling between tapered fiber modes and whispering-gallery modes of a spherical microlaser
(2004-07)
Scope and Method of Study: Coupled-mode theory is used to numerically calculate the coupling coefficients between modes of a tapered fiber and those of a fused-silica microsphere. The coupling coefficients are used to ...
