Michael S Hahn
Unit/Program Communicator, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory
BioI like to write about lots of things. And I'm lucky because I get to do it professionally.
These days, I write about people and the causes they champion at a national lab called SLAC.
I've also written for academic departments and archival collections, grant and fundraising activities, technical working groups, and research efforts, to name a few.
I'm a wannabe-physicist-turned-communicator who loves storytelling, and I have a master's degree in history to help me do it. I'm a student of the complexities of large organizations, particularly of the scientific kind, observing the mechanisms and people that make them what they are today.
The arc of my career spans communications, publishing, higher education, fine arts and oral history. It’s led to meaningful and challenging work in places like Los Angeles, the Bay Area and Chicago.
I'm at my best when I'm entrusted to do good work. -
Sheikh Rubaiat Ul Haque
Postdoctoral Scholar, Photon Science, SLAC
BioRubaiat received his undergraduate degree in Applied Physics from the University of Tokyo in 2017. He then moved to the University of California San Diego where he finished his PhD in Physics under Professor Richard Averitt in 2023. During his PhD, he performed time-resolved broadband terahertz spectroscopy on excitonic insulator candidate Ta2NiSe5 where he demonstrated light-induced terahertz parametric amplification and photonic time crystal state mediated by phonon squeezing. He has also worked on the optical control of plasmonic modes in semiconducting metamaterials. Currently, Rubaiat is a postdoctoral scholar at Stanford University working with Professors Tony Heinz and Aaron Lindenberg on the strong-field lightwave-driven dynamics of low-dimensional materials. His research interests also include cavity QED and Floquet engineering of quantum materials.
