Hiroki Takahashi Assistant Professor Light-Matter Interactions for Quantum Technologies Unit We study interactions between small particles, such as atoms, and laser light using nano-optics tools, to better understand light’s influences on dynamics. Síle Nic Chormaic Professor Quantum Machines Unit We study in theory and experiments the engineering of quantum devices built from different subsystems that can collectively perform beyond the individual capabilities of their parts. Jason Twamley Professor Quantum Systems Unit We study synthetic few- and many-body systems made from ultra-cold atomic gases and develop methods to quantify, control, and engineer their properties and their dynamics.
