About the NASA Postdoctoral Program
The NASA Postdoctoral Program (NPP) offers unique research opportunities to highly-talented scientists to engage in ongoing NASA research projects at a NASA Center, NASA Headquarters, or at a NASA-affiliated research institute. These one- to three-year fellowships are competitive and are designed to advance NASA’s missions in space science, Earth science, aeronautics, space operations, exploration systems, and astrobiology.
Description:
Laser and Electro-Optics Branch provides expertise, facilities, and infrastructure to develop Goddard science instrument and spacecraft system hardware. The Branch is a world leader in the development, fabrication and qualification of space flight lasers. The Branch facilities include clean rooms designed and equipped for developing space flight lasers with state-of-the-art optical instrumentation, numerous laser and laser instrument development laboratories, and laboratories dedicated to accelerated testing of laser diode arrays and optics for space qualification and reliability analysis. The Branch continues to develop new concepts and technologies for future generation laser and electro-optic instruments and systems. The Branch has strong technology interest in the development of solid-state, fiber, and diode lasers, optical parametric oscillators, Fabry-Perot etalons, and time-resolved single-photon detectors, diode and laser system testing and qualification, nonlinear harmonic generation, LIght Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) and spectrometer instruments, and free space optical communication systems.
