Since arriving at Purdue I have treated teaching as an extension of laboratory practice: incremental, and always hands-on. During my first doctoral year I was the graduate teching assistant for Modern Mechanics and Modern-Physics laboratories, where I ran weekly sessions, wrote grading rubrics, and guided more than a hundred undergraduates through optics and mechanics experiments. Office hours doubled as problem-solving workshops; by semester’s end most students could analyze uncertainty and fit data with the same rigor we expect in research reports. In summer 2023 the University of Mumbai invited me to deliver an eight-lecture mini-course on atomic, molecular, and optical physics. Teaching remotely to M.Sc. students on the weekends, I combined demonstrations of laser-cooling simulations with structured assignments that mirrored their syllabus yet exposed them to current tweezer techniques. Back at Purdue, I mentored undergraduates and visiting interns inside the Hood Lab, supervising projects on PID loop tuning and simple optics projects in Atomic molecular optical physics (AMO) lab.
I am in the process of uploading the AMO lecture series on youtube. Only the first introductory lecture is in Hindi, rest all are in english so feel free to skip the first one if you are not a hindi speaking person.
Here's the link for that: First lecture , Second lecture , Third lecture
Here's a talk on I gave on Cesium results in the lab: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xGwd_TUaHRE&t=346s
I have talked about atomic clocks in this as well.
