SUMMARY:ICFO | JUN YE
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:ABSTRACT:\nLaser and quantum science have fueled revolutionary 
 developments in atomic and fundamental physics. Scaling up quantum systems
  to increasingly large sizes promises to revolutionize the performance of 
 atomic clocks and bring opportunities for new discovery. Quantum technolog
 y has brought tens of thousands of atoms to minute-long coherence\, enabli
 ng the achievement of best measurement precision and accuracy. The combina
 tion of ultrafast optics and precision metrology has provided new tools fo
 r nuclear physics\, leading to the recent breakthrough of quantum-state-re
 solved laser spectroscopy of thorium-229 nuclear transition. The permeatio
 n of quantum metrology to all corners of physics sparks new ideas for test
 ing fundamental laws of nature and searching for new physics.&nbsp\;\n&nbs
 p\;\nBIO\nJun Ye is a Fellow of JILA\, a Fellow of NIST\, and a member of 
 the National Academy of Sciences. His research focuses on the development 
 of new tools for light-matter interactions and their applications in preci
 sion measurement\, quantum science\, and frequency metrology. He has co-au
 thored over 400 scientific papers and delivered 700 invited talks. Among h
 is awards and honors are five Gold Medals from the US Commerce Department\
 , N.F. Ramsey Prize (APS)\, I.I. Rabi Award (IEEE)\, I.I. Rabi Prize (APS)
 \, and W.F. Meggers Award (OSA).&nbsp\; His recent honors include Breakthr
 ough Prize in Fundamental Physics\, Niels Bohr Institute Medal of Honour\,
  Herbert Walther Award\, and Vannevar Bush Fellowship. The web page for th
 e research group\, including highlights for many highly talented and enthu
 siastic young researchers\, is http://jila.colorado.edu/YeLabs/.&nbsp\;\n&
