Dileep Reddy (IntlAssoc)

I hail from Bangalore, India. I spent my undergraduate years in the Department of Electrical Engineering at the Indian Institute of Technology, Madras (IITM). Soon after, I jumped ship and landed a doctoral degree from the Physics Department at the University of Oregon.

Current Research Projects

1. Superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors (SNSPD) device development and study of dynamics
2. Novel SNSPD use cases (particle detection, caloriemetry)
3. Integrated optics: fabrication toolset development
4. Temporal-mode selective nonlinear optics
