Irina B. Novikova

Irina Borisovna Novikova (born 1975) is a Russian-American physicist specializing in quantum optics. She is a professor of physics at the College of William & Mary.

Early life and education

Novikova was born in 1975 in Moscow,[1] the daughter of a physicist,[2] and earned a diploma in engineering physics and solid state physics, summa cum laude, from the Moscow Engineering Physics Institute in 1998. She completed her Ph.D. in physics in 2003 at Texas A&M University, with the dissertation Nonlinear magneto-optic effects in optically dense Rb vapor, supervised by George R. Welch.[1]

Recognition

Novikova was named an OSA Fellow, in the class of 2020, "for outstanding research of quantum coherence phenomena in atomic vapors, and ongoing service to OSA and the optics community".[2][3]
