People Profiles

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.
Nicholas Grabon

Nicholas Grabon is a JQI graduate fellow who received an undergraduate degree in physics at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. There, he helped design silicon chips with embedded quantum logic. At JQI, he previously worked on the theory of topological states on a lattice containing individual sites. Now, he is working with Vladimir Manucharyan to build smaller resonators with higher quality, design (fluxonium) qubits with decreased noise and better understand many-body physics.
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.
Phil Richerme

Phil Richerme is a postdoc in Chris Monroe's Trapped Ion Quantum Information Group. He studies quantum magnetism using a well-controlled and well-isolated system of atomic ion spins, realizing Feynman's original proposal for a quantum simulator. These experiments probe the ground state and dynamical evolution of interacting spin systems, which are difficult (or impossible) for classical computers to calculate for even a few dozen spins. Phil received his Ph.D. from Harvard in 2012, working with Gerald Gabrielse and the ATRAP collaboration at CERN to trap antihydrogen atoms for sensitive tests of CPT symmetry.
Elizabeth Goldschmidt

Elizabeth Goldschmidt recently joined the quantum information science group at the Army Research Laboratory. She earned an undergraduate degree in physics at Harvard University. After, she went on to earn a PhD at JQI, where as part of Alan Migdall's research group, she worked on quantum memory and single photon technologies. She then received a National Research Council postdoctoral fellowship at NIST to work with Trey Porto on simulating condensed matter systems with ultracold atoms trapped in optical lattices. In her position at the Army Research Lab, she is starting a new experimental research program focused on quantum memory and quantum information in solid-state materials.
Zachary Eldredge

Zachary Eldredge, a PhD student at JQI and QuICS, received undergraduate degrees in physics and mathematics from the University of Oklahoma. At JQI, he has studied the emergence of a self-organized structure in atoms near a nanofiber, working closely with Luis Orozco’s to investigate nanofiber platforms and cold atom physics. Now, he works with Alexey Gorshkov and studies the physics of long-range quantum information and quantum networks.
