Position Overview
PREP Research Associate
This position is part of the National Institute of Standards (NIST) Professional Research Experience (PREP) program. NIST recognizes
that its research staff may wish to collaborate with researchers at academic institutions on specific projects of mutual interest, thus
requires that such institutions must be the recipient of a PREP award. The PREP program requires staff from a wide range of
backgrounds to work on scientific research in many areas. Employees in this position will perform technical work that underpins the
scientific research of the collaboration.
Research Title:
Advanced Low-Noise Frequency Synthesis and Phase Noise Metrology
The work will entail:
The primary objective of this project is two-fold: first, to innovate low-phase and amplitude noise frequency synthesis
techniques spanning from radio frequencies to the optical regime; and second, to develop advanced analog...
