Albert specializes in the development of astronomical instruments for both radio and optical bands. He aims to explore the high-time resolution sky by advancing detection technologies.
In September 2023, Albert joined the Dunlap Institute as a Dunlap Postdoctoral Fellow in Instrumentation and Experimentation. He is a member of the Canadian Hydrogen Observatory and Radio-transient Detector (CHORD) collaboration, working on the analog signal chain and power distribution system. He is also involved in other radio instrumentation projects, developing technologies for future radio telescopes. Albert’s work extends to optical technology, where he calibrates and tests detectors like sCMOS and SPAD. Furthermore, he participates in educational projects, such as the creation of cost-effective radio telescopes using common kitchenware.
Albert earned his Ph.D. in Physics from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology in 2023 under the supervision of Prof. George F. Smoot. He led the development of the Single-Photon Imager for Nanosecond Astrophysics (SPINA) system, which performs Ultra-Fast optical observation.
