Quantum Information Science & Technology

Among the brilliantly technical and creative minds JILA is home to, postdoctoral researcher Jake Higgins applies the best of both worlds to their work in the group of JILA and NIST Fellow and University of Colorado Boulder physics professor Jun Ye. Leveraging their multi-disciplinary background, Higgins is advancing nuclear clock technology.

JILA and NIST Fellow and CU Boulder Physics Professor Jun Ye and his team have been featured in a recent Interesting Engineering article for their work on nuclear clocks using thorium thin films. 

JILA and NIST Fellow Ana Maria Rey, a physics professor at the University of Colorado Boulder, was prominently featured in a recent Physics World article titled "Return to Helgoland: Celebrating 100 Years of Quantum Mechanics." The piece delves into the significant advancements in quantum science since its inception, with Rey's work highlighted as a pivotal contribution to the field.
