Education

  Ph.D. -- University of Michigan (1996)
B.S. -- Beijing University (1989)

Research Interests

 
  • Feasibility of quantum dot quantum computers
  • Bandstructure effects on electron exchange in Si
  • Nuclear spin dynamics in semiconductor heterostructures
  • Squeezed state in solids

  I have been working on solid state quantum computing, coherent control in semiconductor heterostructures, spintronics, and quantum fluctuations in solids. The focus of my research has been to study and to manipulate quantum coherence, correlation, and fluctuations, and to explore their role in future nanoscale devices.
