Join us
Join the Quantum Engineering and Photonics (QEP) Group
We are actively recruiting motivated students at all levels to work on research in quantum sensing, quantum information, integrated photonics, and quantum systems engineering. Our projects span theory, hardware, and system-level integration, with strong emphasis on interdisciplinary training and real-world impact.
Prospective students are encouraged to review the available projects below and contact me with a brief introduction and relevant background.
Undergraduate Research Opportunities
Undergraduate projects focus on building strong foundations in experimental systems, simulation, and instrumentation. These projects are designed to be accessible while contributing to active research directions.
- Miniaturizing Solid-State Quantum Sensor
- Cavity-Coupled Quantum Sensor Readout
- Quantum Robot Microscope: Automation and Control for High-Throughput Quantum Measurements
- Event-driven Simulators for Quantum Networks with GUI
- Quantum Error Correction and Code Optimization for Structured Noise
- Design of Electro- and Opto-Mechanical Resonators for Quantum Information Processing
- Demonstration of a Room-Temperature Diamond Quantum Maser
M.S. Research Opportunities
M.S. students are expected to engage in advanced research involving algorithm development, system modeling, and experimental or computational implementation. These projects may lead to thesis work and publications.
Ph.D. Research Opportunities
Ph.D. research focuses on developing new architectures and technologies for scalable quantum systems, combining theoretical innovation with hardware realization.
- Cavity-based Quantum Amplifier
- CMOS-integrated Nanophotonic Quantum Router
- Heterogeneous Architecture for Quantum Information Processing
