  mentoring_philosophy: |-
    My mentoring philosophy is grounded in fostering a culture of hard work and continuous improvement, inspired by the principles of diligence and perseverance. Here’s how I approach mentoring:
    Diligence and Perseverance: I emphasize consistent effort and encourage tackling tasks with dedication, understanding that perseverance through challenges leads to mastery and success.
    High Standards and Expectations: I set high expectations, pushing mentees to strive for excellence. With the right guidance and effort, I believe every student can achieve great things.
    Continuous Improvement: Lifelong learning and self-improvement are crucial. I aim to instill a mindset that values ongoing development and the pursuit of new knowledge and skills.
    Respect for Learning and Authority: I foster an environment where education is highly valued, and the guidance provided by mentors is respected. I encourage trust in mentors' expertise and appreciation of the learning process.
    Balance of Effort and Reflection: While I emphasize hard work, I also recognize the importance of reflection. I guide mentees to thoughtfully consider their efforts and ensure their hard work is directed effectively.
    Community and Collaboration: Hard work is a collective endeavor. I encourage mentees to support each other, work together, and foster a sense of community and shared purpose.
    Through this mentoring philosophy, I aim to cultivate a robust work ethic and resilient mindset in my mentees, preparing them to tackle complex problems and achieve their goals through sustained effort and collaboration. This approach supports their personal and professional growth and long-term success

  overall_research_project_description: 'Optical spectroscopy is one of the most fundamental and ubiquitous experimental techniques for scientific investigations. Various types of spectrometers are invented to tailor spectroscopic measurements in different spectral ranges, from X-Ray, visible optics to infrared range. The terahertz (THz) range (100 GHz to 3 THz) is technically challenging due to the lack of efficient sources and detectors, as well as the difficulty in manipulating THz waves with conventional optics. The development of a Fourier transform spectrometer is crucial in addressing these challenges by offering high spectral resolution and broad bandwidth capabilities. The aim of the project is to upscale experimental capabilities in the THz range by developing a polarizing Michelson interferometer and improving the components of THz optics.'

  research_tasks_for_student_research_assistant_s_: |
    There are several engaging research tasks designed for students with varying levels of experience. These tasks can be combined or split based on the student's interests and capabilities, ensuring a tailored and enriching experience.
    Science:
    Fundamentals of Fourier Transform Spectroscopy: Students will learn the principles behind this technique and apply their knowledge by building a prototype setup on the optical table.
    Optical Properties of Materials: Students will explore the basics of optical properties and conduct transmission measurements on various materials, gaining hands-on experience in material testing.

    Engineering:
    Optical Design Innovation: Students will engage in designing optical holders and mountings, aligning tools, and utilizing the 3D printing and machining capabilities available at NHFML.
    Printed Circuit Boards: Students will design and develop printed circuit boards using graphical layout editor software, bringing their engineering ideas to life.

    Programming:
    LabVIEW Programming: Students will learn LabVIEW, an intuitive graphical programming language widely used in science and engineering, to develop interface programs for real-time data acquisition and hardware control.
    User Interface Customization: Students will enhance existing user interfaces for monitoring and controlling applications, tailoring them to specific research needs.
