Education[]
Teich’s academic credentials include an S.B. degree in physics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, an M.S. degree in electrical engineering from Stanford University, and a Ph.D. degree from Cornell University. His bachelor's thesis, written jointly with Paul J. Schweitzer and supervised by Theos J. Thompson, investigated the total neutron cross section of palladium using the fast chopper at the M.I.T. nuclear reactor.[4] In carrying out his Ph.D. dissertation, supervised by George J. Wolga, he made use of the then-new gallium-arsenide laser diode to observe the nonlinear two-photon photoelectric effect in metallic sodium.[5] The principal results that followed from his doctoral dissertation were published in Physical Review Letters.[6][7]
Career[]
Teich assumed his first professional affiliation in January 1966 at M.I.T. Lincoln Laboratory, as a member of the research group directed by Robert J. Keyes and Robert H. Kingston. In September 1967, he joined the faculty of Columbia University, where he served as a member of the Electrical Engineering Department (as Chairman from 1978 to 1980), the Applied Physics and Applied Mathematics Department, the Columbia Radiation Laboratory (founded and directed by I. I. Rabi) in the Department of Physics, and the Fowler Memorial Laboratory (directed by Shyam M. Khanna) in the Department of Otolaryngology at the Columbia University Medical Center. In 1996, he was appointed Professor Emeritus of Engineering Science and Applied Physics.[8] In 1995, concurrently with his Emeritus status at Columbia, he joined Boston University as a faculty member in the Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering (as Director of the Quantum Photonics Laboratory and as a member of the Boston University Photonics Center), the Department of Biomedical Engineering (as a member of the Graduate Program for Neuroscience and the Hearing Research Center), and the Department of Physics. In 2011, he was appointed Professor Emeritus of Electrical & Computer Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, and Physics in Boston University.[9] Over the course of his career, his efforts in quantum photonics have been devoted to exploring the properties, behavior, and applications of classical and nonclassical light, including its generation, characterization, modulation, transmission, propagation, amplification, detection, and frequency-conversion. In computational neuroscience, he has concentrated on elucidating the role of fractal stochastic processes in neural information transmission. He has also worked on codifying the detection laws of audition and vision, an enterprise that lies at the interface of quantum photonics and computational neuroscience.[10][11] He has mentored more than 30 doctoral students at Columbia University and Boston University.
He has also spent sabbatical leaves at the University of Colorado at Boulder, the University of California at San Diego, and the University of Central Florida at Orlando.
