Mohammad is an assistant professor of Electrical Engineering and Applied Physics, and previously was a KNI postdoctoral scholar at Caltech. In the past he has worked on entangling distant transmon qubits via microwave waveguides and developed integrated devices for microwave-to-optical quantum transduction. Mohammad did his PhD in the Institute of Optics at the University of Rochester. His thesis work was on high-capacity quantum communication with structured photons.
Postdocs
Han Zhao
Dr. Han Zhao joined the Quantum Engineering Lab as a postdoctoral associate, working on microwave-optical frequency conversion and quantum transduction. Han received his PhD from the University of Pennsylvania in December, 2019 and was a postdoctoral associate at the University of Washington, Seattle. His past research work has been on non-Hermitian and topological photonics, and integrated acousto-optics.
Hao Tian
Dr. Hao Tian is an IQIM postdoctoral scholar at Caltech, where he is working on transduction between mechanics, photonics, and superconducting qubits for building hybrid quantum systems.
