Quantum Photonics

Ongoing projects

  • Leverage the transformative platform of meta-optics composed of nanostructured metasurfaces or metamaterials to enable a new paradigm for generating, manipulating, and measuring non-classical light. Such meta-optics have the most direct access to all the degrees of freedom of photons, from polarization to spatial states to frequencies, thus allowing a massively parallel approach to quantum photonics.
  • Leverage photons’ various degrees of freedom to synthesize extra dimensions beyond real space to realize a class of highly powerful photonic quantum simulators.
