Strategic areaQuantum matter & controlCV anchor: CV: Quantum matter, control, and simulationSignals in focus

Quantum many-body systems, sensing, and neutral-atom control, linking NV-center metrology, dipolar gases, and Rydberg platforms to practical calibration and control tooling.

Fit interacting systems and deliver control stacks across NV centers, dipolar gases, and neutral-atom arrays; focus on turning sensing traces and calibration data into reliable control and visualization.

Research notes

Quantum matter, control, and simulation

Correlated-matter work at HKUST spans dipolar 168Er BEC experiments (APS DAMOP 2020), NV-center Hamiltonian estimation (Feb 2023–Jan 2024), and Strontium-88 Rydberg control middleware (Jun 2023–Jan 2024).

The throughline is fitting and controlling interacting systems: recovering hyperfine parameters for NV sensing, stabilizing dipolar gases, and delivering usable control layers for neutral-atom arrays and related hardware.

Key results3
  • Recovered NV-center hyperfine parameters used in subsequent state-preparation studies.
  • Shared dipolar BEC results at APS DAMOP 2020.
  • Delivered Strontium-88 Rydberg control middleware with HKUST collaborators.
Ongoing projects3
  • Extending sensing fits to speed up calibration cycles.
  • Continuing collaborations on neutral-atom control and visualization tooling.
  • Applying control patterns to superconducting layout studies.
