Institute of Fundamental and Frontier Sciences, UESTC
Laboratory of Quantum Physics and Engineering

I am a master’s student at the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, working with Prof. Guangwei Deng and Prof. Bo Jing. My current training focuses on experimental quantum optics, warm-atom quantum memories, and automation for optical experiments.

Research interests

  • Quantum memories and light–matter interfaces based on warm atomic ensembles
  • Nonclassical correlations and entanglement in atomic-ensemble systems
  • Noise suppression and experimental control in quantum-optical platforms

Current research

Warm-rubidium-ensemble DLCZ quantum memory

I am currently studying the theory and experimental methods of DLCZ quantum memories in warm rubidium ensembles, with an emphasis on write–read correlations, spin-wave storage, four-wave-mixing noise, and the experimental conditions required for improving nonclassical correlations.
