I’m thinking about using tabletop atomic, molecular and optical (AMO) systems to engineer novel quantum materials while focusing intriguing phenomena discussed across disciplines, from condensed matter to cosmology. To deal with topics over this kind of variety, we exploit physics controlled by universality, the chilly cloud of dilute gases, for instance, can behave similarly just as one exotic quantum material in solid states or even as being a cosmic fluid noisy . world. AMO systems let us apply quantum control and measurements with great precision, supplying a obvious designer platform for more information on fundamental issues in quantum mechanics, field theory, and record physics.

My lab utilize the ultimate tunability and addressability of atomic quantum gases to look at challenging questions including emergent phenomena and non-equilibrium dynamics in a number of-body systems with strong correlations. Further lines of research include building hybrid atom-nanophotonic quantum devices, and exploring new avenues of topological quantum materials using strongly interacting light and matter.&#160
