معرفی
Aleks Rebane is a Professor in the Department of Physics at Montana State University within the College of Letters & Science, with interdisciplinary affiliations in Materials Science and the Optical Technology Center (OpTec).
His educational background includes:
- Ph.D. in Physics, Institute of Physics, 1984
- M.S., Tartu State University, 1981
Dr. Rebane's research spans ultrafast nonlinear optics, biophotonics, and spectroscopy, with emphasis on multiphoton spectroscopy of organic systems, protein physics, photodynamic therapy, and quantum optical phenomena. His work bridges physics and chemistry to develop novel optical materials and biomedical imaging techniques.
Recent publications (2020-2024) demonstrate consistent focus on fluorescent molecular probes for two-photon pH sensing, molecular symmetry control mechanisms, and quantum memory applications using slow light in rare-earth doped crystals.
His notable award nominations include:
- Yuri N. Denisyuk Holography Medal (2010) by Russian Academy of Sciences
- Cox Award (2003) by Montana State University
- Charles and Nora Wiley Award (1999) by Montana State University
- Leopold Ruzicka Prize (1996) by ETH Zurich
- Optics Prize and Medal (1993) by International Commission for Optics
While specific graduate student advising details are unavailable, Dr. Rebane actively teaches advanced physics courses including Electromagnetic Theory and Nonlinear Optics, and serves as reviewer for Chemistry - A European Journal, ChemPhysChem, Journal of Organic Chemistry, and Nature Photonics. He also contributes to academic service as SPIE Photonics West Conference Program Committee member.
His leadership in the Optical Technology Center and Materials Science program facilitates interdisciplinary collaboration in optical technologies and advanced materials development.
