Welcome, you have reached the WWW pages of the group of Luis A. Orozco from the Joint Quantum Insitute which is part of the Atomic Molecular and Optical Physics research effort at UMD
Quantum Optics studies the coherence and statistical properties of light and how they change as it interacts with atoms. Our experimental work in Quantum Optics is in Cavity Quantum Electrodynamics (QED). Francium Spectroscopy probes the structure of the heaviest alkali metal atom using laser light. The francium spectroscopy project is part of the FrPNC collaboration directed by Prof. Gerald Gwinner from the Univesity of Manitoba, the experiments will be carried at TRIUMF in Vancouver, Canada.
The National Science Foundation and the National Institute of Standards and Technology support our work. Sociedad Mexicana de Fisica has supported the Research Experience for Mexican Undergraduates in the laboratory.
The group may have research positions: for Post-Doctoral Associates, Graduate, and Undergraduate Students; Summer/Academic Year. Please contact Luis A. Orozco lorozco at umd.edu directly.
Group Members. Includes CVs, collaborators, and past members.
Results from previous and current year: Includes talks, public lectures, poster presentations, and news releases.
