Adam J. Fleisher is a research chemist at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in Gaithersburg, Maryland, USA. His work focuses on precision molecular spectroscopy, particularly measuring the isotopic composition of greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and nitrous oxide. Fleisher and his colleagues use advanced optical sensing techniques, including optical frequency combs, quantum-cascade lasers, and high-finesse optical resonators, to develop accurate measurements.
Prior to joining NIST, Fleisher was a National Research Council postdoc at JILA (University of Colorado Boulder and NIST) under the supervision of Jun Ye. He earned his Ph.D. from the University of Pittsburgh in 2011 and completed his undergraduate studies at Elizabethtown College in 2007. Fleisher has served on the organizing committees for several optical sensing and spectroscopy meetings and has published research on topics such as crystalline supermirrors, fundamental constants, and accurate CO2 measurements.
