| My CV | Research Interests My research interests lie in the area of experimental atomic and molecular optical (AMO) physics, with my primary focus being the study of molecular ro-vibrational spectroscopy and molecular dynamics, as well as the development of THz technology in application to spectroscopy and radiation generation-detection methods.

CW-THz spectroscopy Remarkable spectral brightness of the radiation sources makes cw-THz techniques perfectly suitable for doing high resolution spectroscopy. The solid state transmitter/receiver technology gives necessary flexibility and sensitivity in performing these measurements. I work on extending capabilities of current THz spectrometers in terms of sensitivity and accuracy of frequency and intensity measurements.

Molecular spectroscopy
Better quantum mechanical models and new computational tools for spectral analysis are essential to extend our understanding of the high resolution ro-vibrational molecular spectra. While at the Ohio State University I worked on a wide range of spectroscopic projects and would like to continue my research on this subject. In particular, I am interested in spectroscopy of large amplitude vibrational mode, mode coupling and ro-vibrational dynamics.

TD-THz techniques and femtosecond laser pulse metrology Interaction of the high intensity femtosecond laser pulses with atomic and molecular systems results in generation of a broadband spectrum of electromagnetic radiation including THz radiation. I am interested in employing this radiation for spectroscopic applications as well as correlating properties of the femtosecond pulse with characteristics of the generated THz radiation. In particular, in the ongoing research project, we are trying to establish relationship between Carrier-Envelope Phase (CEP) of the few femto-second long laser pulses and the intensity of the generated THz radiation.
