Dmitry Fishman

Dmitry Fishman is an Adjunct Professor and Director of the Laser Spectroscopy Labs at the Department of Chemistry, University of California Irvine. His research focuses on nanophotonics, ultrafast phenomena, and condensed matter physics/chemistry. Key areas include light-matter interaction, nonlinear optics, and developing photonics-based technologies for controlling material properties and enabling novel functionalities.

His lab explores topics like two-photon absorption in semiconductors, mid-infrared imaging, and programmable nanostructures. Projects span theoretical and experimental approaches, with opportunities for graduate and undergraduate students. The Laser Spectroscopy Labs require registration for use, offering advanced facilities for spectroscopy and photonics research.

Recent work includes innovations in silicon-based detectors, atomically precise helical crystals, and rapid chemical sensing methods. Fishman's interdisciplinary approach bridges physics, chemistry, and materials science to advance both fundamental understanding and applied technologies.
