Bio

Rubaiat 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 demonstrated light-induced terahertz parametric amplification and photonic time crystal state mediated by phonon squeezing in exciton insulator candidate Ta2NiSe5. 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 and nonlinear magnonics in vdW magnets. His research interests also include cavity control and Floquet engineering of quantum materials.
