We build multimode cavity-QED systems that reduce the complexity of quantum information processing and storage by coupling a single or a few superconducting circuits (logical elements) to a spectrum of long-lived 3D cavity modes (memories). <span style=\"font-size: 1rem\">These systems are promising for exploring quantum optics approaching the many-body regime, in an inherently non-equilibrium setting with tunable interactions and dissipation. <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 1rem\">We plan to use these systems to build exotic quantum states of microwave photons, explore different schemes for quantum control and error correction, and develop new hardware that improves on gate fidelities.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #800000\">Past work on superconducting quantum systems<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>My postdoctoral research in the group of <a href=\"http:\/\/schusterlab.uchicago.edu\/\">Dave Schuster at U.Chicago<\/a> focused on quantum information processing with multimode circuit quantum electrodynamics (multimode cQED). We demonstrated the feasibility of universal quantum computing in this architecture by implementing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nature.com\/articles\/s41467-017-02046-6\">random access processor<\/a> in a planar chip. We also developed a <a href=\"https:\/\/arxiv.org\/abs\/2010.16382\">general technique for building high-coherence multimode cavities<\/a> that can be efficiently coupled to superconducting qubits and leveraged the coherence improvements and strong interactions with the superconducting transmon circuit to engineer a new non-local many-body interaction (<a href=\"https:\/\/arxiv.org\/abs\/2010.15292\">multimode photon blockade<\/a>) between microwave photons. The improvements in the coherence and thermal occupations that we achieved for 3D cQED systems also enabled the demonstration of a <a href=\"https:\/\/physics.aps.org\/articles\/v14\/s45\">new scheme for detecting low-mass dark matter<\/a> by using superconducting qubits as photon counters. In addition, I also helped demonstrate a new superconducting circuit variant called the <a href=\"https:\/\/journals.aps.org\/prl\/abstract\/10.1103\/PhysRevLett.120.150504\">heavy-fluxonium<\/a>, and transmon qubits with novel junctions comprised of <a href=\"https:\/\/pubs.acs.org\/doi\/pdf\/10.1021\/acs.nanolett.9b03886\">two-dimensional Van-der Waals materials<\/a>.
