Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMartin Caldarola is a Lead Application Scientist with a PhD in Physics and 14 years of experience translating nanophotonics research into applied optical instrumentation, particularly in single-molecule detection and imaging with superconducting-nanowire single-photon detectors. He has a proven track record of end-to-end system design—building bespoke confocal and photothermal microscopes, integrating circular dichroism spectroscopy, and developing Python control and automation for complex experiments. Experienced in both academic and commercial settings, Martin combines hands-on laboratory leadership with customer-facing application development at Single Quantum. He routinely leverages photonic nanostructures and nonlinear enhancement strategies to push detection sensitivity, and has supervised and co‑mentored students across multiple projects. Based in Delft, he brings a pragmatic, interdisciplinary approach that turns cutting-edge optics research into deployable tools for imaging and sensing.
