I am a Ph.D. candidate in Physics at California Institute of Technology,
currently working as a Research Assistant in Quantum Optics Group of Prof. H. Jeff Kimble.

I work in the field of atomic, molecular and optical physics, and quantum information science, conducting experimental research on cavity quantum electrodynamics (cQED) using atoms and on-chip ultra-high-Q microresonators such as a microtoroidal resonator, which is fabricated in collaboration with Vahala Group of Prof. Kerry J. Vahala at Caltech.

Research areas: Atomic, molecular and optical physics; quantum optics; cavity-QED;
micro/nano-technology; quantum information science; and optical devices in general.

Related applications: Optical devices, quantum devices, micro/nano-scale devices, quantum network, quantum communication, cryptography,  computation and metrology/sensor.
