Dr. Sandra Mamani is a Postdoctoral researcher at the Institute for Ultrafast Spectroscopy and Lasers at The City College of New York. She is continuing to work under the guidance of Distinguished Professor Robert Alfano, her former Ph.D. advisor. She has recently defended her thesis on ‘Orbital and spin angular momentum in light generation, interactions, special photons, and applications in liquids, solids, vapors, and biological tissue media.’ Her area of expertise is in the light-matter application of structured light carrying various polarization and orbital angular momentum (OAM). She also focuses on ultrafast nonlinear light-matter applications with and without the use of OAM beams such as stimulated Raman scattering, filamentation, supercontinuum, and optical Kerr effect. Dr. Mamani earned a double Bachelor of Science in Physics and Computer Science from Lehman College CUNY in 2016. She has authored/co-authored 12 peer-reviewed journal papers and is a co-inventor of 3 patents. She is a former Vice-President of the Optica CCNY Student Chapter (2021-2023). She is the recipient of: The Lawrence & Margaret Hauben Graduate Fellowship (2023,2024), The Slagowitz Family Scholarship (Alumni Associate CCNY Scholarship, 2023), Corning Scholarship (2020,2021), best poster presentation at the 121st Topical Symposium of the APS New York State Section: Physical of the optical Materials, Corning Museum of Glass, Corning (2019).
