Summary:

Develops quantum sensors based on neutral atoms and solid-state atom-like defects (e.g. NV diamond) for measuring inertial forces, magnetic fields, and time, and applies nanophotonics/nanofabrication to improve the size, weight, and performance of quantum sensing instruments; collaborates with Mikhail Kats on metasurface-enhanced atomic magnetometers.

Summary:

Studies light-matter interaction at the nanoscale (metasurfaces, thermal emission, plasmonics) and, with Jennifer Choy, has developed metasurface polarizing beamsplitters that enable compact, chip-integrated atomic magnetometers (optically pumped magnetometry) alongside broader work in quantum and topological photonics.
