Student Research Assistant, Center for Quantum & Topological Systems (CQTS)
Engineered a full-stack NV-center quantum diamond spectrometer for sensing.
- Executed precision optical alignment (beam focusing, AOM diffraction, polarization control).
- Synchronized RF/MW pulse sequences with NI-DAQ via PulseBlaster timing; implemented APD-based photon detection.
- Built a PyQt6 GUI around QuPyt for code-free execution: automated YAML/pulse-sequence generation, live ODMR fitting, nanosecond-level hardware sync, and intuitive experiment setup.
- Delivered a technical presentation to Mubadala UAE on integrating NV-based sensing for MRI enhancement (hardware-software workflow and experimental challenges).
- Presented at NYUAD Summer Symposium 2025; awarded 1st Place for Best Poster.
