Expertise Description: |
|
electromagnetic radiation expert |
Expert has over 20 years experience in the propagation and scattering of electromagnetic radiation. Her research interests were in the area of laser light transmission and scattering through optically dense media. She has expertise in radiative transport, Mie scattering, remote sensing and imaging, non-destructive testing, ultra-fast photography, frequency agile laser eye and sensor protection, photonic crystals, optical phase conjugation, and quantum optics. |
|
light scattering spectroscopy expert
Beer's law expert |
Expert's primary area of research is in light scattering. She won the award for Best Research Project at the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Dahlgren, VA, in 1998. Her award-winning research project, dealing with multiple scattering and optical extinction, led to a breakthrough in understanding light extinction in optically dense media and the limits of applicability of the Beer-Lambert-Bouguer Law. This research resulted in a reliable method for optimizing scattering, based on particle size and material type, for applications such as cavityless lasing and localization. She has further applied this concept to research in surface plasmon resonance in metal nanoparticles. |
|
optics expert |
Expert has been working in the field of optics for over 20 years. She holds three patents and is the author of over 30 scientific publications. She has worked on numerous basic research projects involving light scattering and radiative transport. In addition, she has worked on many applied projects involving lidar remote sensing in the visible, infrared, and ultra-violet, ultra-fast photography, stereoscopic imaging and more. |
