Gabriel Santamaria-Botello
Assistant Professor
Gabriel Santamaria received his Electrical Engineering degree from the University of Carabobo, Venezuela in 2014 and his Ph.D. from Charles III University of Madrid (UC3M), Spain in 2021. During his Ph.D. studies, he developed theoretical models and experimental demonstrations of THz-to-optical upconversion via resonant electro-optics techniques for high-sensitivity THz radiometry. In 2021 he joined the Microwave & RF Research Group at the University of Colorado, Boulder as a Research Associate, where he worked on microwave sensing techniques using Rydberg atoms and the development of non-invasive radiometers for internal body temperature measurements. His research interests include nonlinear and quantum optics, microwave and integrated photonics, low-noise mm-wave and THz sensing, superconducting circuits, and computational electromagnetics (MLFMM).
