Dr. Vishwa Pal is an Associate Professor in the Department of Physics at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Ropar, Punjab, India. He earned his PhD degree in 2014 from the School of Physical Sciences, Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU), New Delhi, India. As part of his doctoral research, he conducted a portion of his work at the CNRS Laboratoire Aimé Cotton, Orsay, France, under the Indo-French collaborative framework. His Ph.D. research focused on the investigation of semiconductor laser systems, specifically exploring noise correlations and dynamical control using delayed optical feedback. Following his Ph.D., Dr. Pal was awarded the prestigious PBC Fellowship for Outstanding Postdoctoral Researchers by the Council for Higher Education of Israel. He joined the research group of Prof. Nir Davidson and Prof. Asher A. Friesem at the Weizmann Institute of Science, Israel. His postdoctoral research focused on phase-locking large arrays of lasers and utilizing them to explore topological effects, simulate spin systems, and solve computationally hard problems. Additionally, he contributed to industrial laser beam shaping applications in collaboration with Israeli industry partners. In 2018, Dr. Pal joined CREOL, The College of Optics and Photonics, in Florida, USA, as a Research Scientist. There, he worked on the synthesis of non-diffracting optical beams in free space by leveraging space-time correlations. In the same year, he was awarded the Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions Individual Fellowship by the European Commission.
