EMPLOYMENT
Postdoctoral Researcher
The Ohio State University, Aug. 2014- Jan. 2015
• Interference imaging for ophthalmology applications
Research Assistant,
Louisiana State University, 2007-2013
• A novel digital non mechanical laser beam steering device and system was developed for future LIDAR, target detection and tracking, missile guidance, and remote sensing applications for the U.S. Air Force. The device performed raster scans, push broom scans, and simultaneously scanned in several directions using one laser.
• A novel non-mechanical system was developed which changed the magnification of an image digitally by controlling the polarization of a liquid crystal cell.
• Developed a digital system which changed the properties (astigmatic, converging, diverging) of a beam of light.
• All topics were sponsored by the U.S. Air Force
Research Assistant,
Louisiana State University 2007-2011
• We collaborated with the Jet Propulsion Laboratory to build compact, fast, wide-field imaging spectrometer system. A spectral and spatial uniformity of 97% was achieved.
• The tool is capable of remotely estimating the material properties (in the infrared spectrum) on earth and other planets.
Teaching Assistant,
Louisiana State University 2011-2013
• EE 4220 Optical Electronics (Lecture and Lab)
o Revised laboratory manual ,designed an experiment, presented lectures

o Prepared lecture and presentation, and defined grading policies for laboratory reports for all teaching assistants.
• EE 3222 Electronics II Lecture
Research Assistant
Louisiana State University 2005-2006
• Designed a polymer (PVDF) actuator capable of tilting a waveguide for image displacement which can be used for adjusting the quality of an image.
Student Worker
