People Profiles

Mohammad Maghrebi

Mohammad Maghrebi earned his PhD in physics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where he received the Sergio Vazquez Prize for his research on quantum fluctuations. For his postdoctoral research at JQI, he is working towards understanding non-equilibrium phases of matter in hopes of creating states of matter that do not occur outside the lab. He is also working on quantifying entanglement of many-body systems in equilibrium as well as finding patterns of entanglement generation outside of equilibrium.
Aaron Lee

Aaron Lee, a JQI graduate student, received his undergraduate degree in physics at UMD. He worked with Chris Monroe’s trapped ion group, using ytterbium ions to simulate other quantum systems. As a graduate student, he has continued to study quantum information with the Monroe group and hopes his work can contribute to eventually building a quantum computer.
David Hucul

David Hucul is a graduate student in Professor Chris Monroe's trapped ion quantum information lab at the Joint Quantum Institute. He earned undergraduate degrees in physics and chemistry in 2006 from the University of Michigan and a master's degree at MIT in 2009 under Wolfgang Ketterle. David started his PhD work with Chris Monroe in 2009 working on using frequency combs to entangle trapped ions. He now works on entangling trapped atoms within and between ion traps using both phonons and photons to create quantum networks. He expects to finish his graduate studies sometime in 2015 and hopes to find a postdoctoral position after that.
Stephen Eckel

Stephen Eckel is postdoctoral researcher at the JQI, and a National Research Council postdoctoral fellow from 2013-2014. After receiving his undergraduate degree in physics at Lehigh University, he received numerous fellowships and prizes while pursuing a PhD in physics at Yale. There, he performed two precision measurements searching for the electron’s electric dipole moment, one using a solid-state sample and another using molecular lead-oxide. At JQI, he works with Gretchen Campbell on creating superfluid analogs of superconducting quantum interference devices (SQuIDs) using Bose-Einstein condensates of sodium atoms. He is currently working with a team of graduate students to build a new experiment that can incorporate both ultra-cold sodium and erbium.
Mary Lyon

Mary Lyon is originally from Princeton, New Jersey. She attended Bryn Mawr College, where she earned both her undergraduate degree in physics and a high school teaching certificate. Lyon originally planned to be a high school physics teacher, but discovered a love for research during a summer program at MIT the summer after her junior year. She briefly taught high school in Columbus, GA before going to graduate school at Brigham Young University, where she worked with Scott Bergeson on strongly coupled ultracold neutral plasmas. She is currently a JQI postdoctoral researcher in the group of Trey Porto and Steve Rolston where she is building a new quantum information experiment that will use an ensemble of cold Rydberg atoms.
Xiaopeng Li

Xiapeng Li is a JQI Postdoctoral Fellow working in CMTC. His research interest is primarily in quantum condensed matter. His work covers novel states of matter in both well-controlled ultracold atomic systems and in complex electronic materials. He has been have been studying a broad range of systems, such as atomic p-orbital systems in optical lattices, dipolar quantum gases, and complex oxides. Some of his current efforts focus on (1) emergent spin orbital couplings and gauge fields in spinor Bose gases and Bose-Fermi mixtures as well as (2) band crossing and multi-orbital superconductivity, spin spirals and skyrmions in oxides and heterostructures. Li received his Ph.D. from the University of Pittsburgh and was an undergraduate at the University of Science and Technology of China, Hefei, Anhui, China.
