​
I am a PhD student at JILA and Department of Physics, University of Colorado Boulder, working with Prof. Shuo Sun. I am interested in quantum optics, nanophotonics, atomic physics, and quantum information. Specifically, I explore light-matter interactions at the single-quantum level, spin physics in solid states, and the generation of exotic entangled states for understanding of fundamental quantum physics and applications to quantum information.

News

09/26/2022  (Update 02/02/2023: This paper has been accepted to Quantum!) Our new manuscript is now available on arXiv! In this work, we quantitatively analyzed and compared the performance of different quantum repeater protocols based on photonic graph states, enabled by different generation schemes. We identify the optimal generation scheme at different experimental parameters, and lay out the requirements for experimental implementations.
03/01/2021  Our work on photonic cluster state generation is on JILA highlights!
02/23/2021  I am honored to be selected for the fourth cohort of NSF Quantum Information Science and Engineering Network (QISE-NET) program.
11/24/2020  Our paper on deterministic generation of photonic cluster states was published in Physical Review Letters! We proposed a new scheme to generate photonic tree states and repeater graph states with a single quantum emitter coupled to delayed feedback.
