Biography

Jeff Moses joined the faculty of the School of Applied and Engineering Physics at Cornell University in 2014. He worked as a research scientist at MIT and was the principal investigator for federally sponsored research programs in ultrafast nonlinear optics, attosecond sources physics, and molecular chemical physics. Moses received his Ph.D. in Applied Physics from Cornell in 2007 and his B.Sc. in Applied Physics from Yale in 2001. He is currently leading programs funded by the National Science Foundation, the Department of Energy, and the Office of Naval Research. His research group focuses on using light pulses to capture and control 'ultrafast phenomena' through advanced technology. His team is developing new concepts for generating and manipulating ultrashort light pulses and is particularly interested in biophysical systems, light-activated DNA, and crystalline materials. They aim to discover new ways to circumvent the norms governing intense ultrashort light pulses and are currently working on creating devices that push the limits of optical frequency conversion efficiency. His group’s research helps identify new techniques for producing broadband light sources, manipulating quantum light, and developing tools for various scientific and industrial applications.
