Nitesh Dhasmana

Nitesh Dhasmana is a 2016 research intern in the Applied Sciences Group (ASG).  He is currently pursuing his Ph.D. in Optics at College of Optics and Photonics (CREOL) in University of Central Florida. He pursued his undergraduate (B.Tech) in Engineering Physics from Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati (IITG).

His current work aims at developing a suitable photorefractive composite system for holograms that can be erased and rewritten at video rates which can have potential applications like telepresence and 3D display. This includes material development for broad band sensitization (RGB) with high photogeneration efficiency, faster charge transport and highly electro-optic nonlinear chromophores to achieve high diffraction efficiency and faster response time.

Besides this, he has rich experience working with Optical Fibers and microresonators.

He loves problem solving and is keen to looking for solutions to challenging problems. Being a nature lover, he likes visiting different places. In his spare time he can be found playing guitar, singing, travelling and solving mathematical problems.
