Welcome to Hosseini Lab
Our group research focuses on the central theme of light-atom interaction and its crucial role in quantum optical communication and sensing. We explore various research directions within this field, including: 1) Cooperative interaction of light with periodic arrays of ions in nano- or micro-photonic structures. 2) Quantum light generation and storage utilizing atoms in cryogenic solids or at room temperature. 3) Enhanced sensing and imaging techniques through the integration of optomechanical, quantum optical, and atomic systems.
Postdoctoral positions are available in photonics, quantum memory and levitation sensing. Please send your CV to: mh at northwestern.edu
