I am going to be developing a method of squeezed light induced two-photon absorption for the purpose of imaging biological samples.

My research at JILA in the Jimenez Group is focused on understanding the nature (magnitude and mechanism) of entangled two-photon absorption (E2PA). By better understanding the nature of E2PA, I would like to develop strategies to employ entangled photons and other forms of quantum light in applied fields such as within the chemical and physical sciences.
The Physics Frontiers Centers (PFC) program supports university-based centers and institutes where the collective efforts of a larger group of individuals can enable transformational advances in the most promising research areas. The program is designed to foster major breakthroughs at the intellectual frontiers of physics by providing needed resources such as combinations of talents, skills, disciplines, and/or specialized infrastructure, not usually available to individual investigators or small groups, in an environment in which the collective efforts of the larger group can be shown to be seminal to promoting significant progress in the science and the education of students. PFCs also include creative, substantive activities aimed at enhancing education, broadening participation of traditionally underrepresented groups, and outreach to the scientific community and general public.
