Aaron Katzenmeyer (Fed)

Electrical Engineer

Aaron Katzenmeyer is an electrical engineer in the Nanoscale Spectroscopy Group in the Nanoscale Device Characterization Division in NIST’s Physical Measurement Laboratory. At present, he is primarily working on programs for 1) deterministically creating, characterizing, and utilizing color centers for quantum applications and 2) atomic resolution spectroscopy enabled by scanning tunneling microscopy. Prior to joining NIST as a staff member, Aaron was a Senior Member of Technical Staff at Sandia National Laboratories (NM) in the Photonic and Phononic Microsystems organization where he worked on a wide range of technologies investigating and exploiting electrical, optical, thermal, and interrelated phenomena. Aaron was a National Research Council Postdoctoral Fellow at NIST, working on nanoscale imaging and spectroscopy at mid-IR wavelengths enabled by the photothermal effect. He received a Ph.D. in Electrical and Computer Engineering from UC Davis while performing research at Sandia National Laboratories (CA) on electrical and optoelectronic characterization of individual semiconducting nanowires and nanotubes. Aaron was a member of the first graduating class of the Erasmus Mundus Master (of) Nanoscience and Nanotechnology program, sponsored by the European Union, attending TU Delft (Netherlands), KU Leuven (Belgium), and performing research at imec on molecular electronic non-volatile resistive memory. He received a B.S.E.E. from Ohio University with a minor in Mathematics.
