Research Description
Gyu-Boong Jo explores the physics of open quantum systems, where interactions with the environment reveal new behaviors and opportunities for quantum technologies. His research investigates how dissipation and non-Hermitian dynamics reshape fundamental concepts such as symmetry, topology, and entanglement in many-body systems. By combining itinerant atoms in tweezer arrays with engineered optical lattices, Professor Jo’s team develops experimental platforms that extend quantum simulation beyond conventional closed-system limits, offering new tools for quantum control and design.
Research Impact
Professor Jo’s work contributes to the advancement of quantum technologies across simulation, computing, and sensing. By precisely controlling both coherent and dissipative dynamics in neutral atom systems, his research offers a versatile platform for exploring unconventional quantum phenomena. The knowledge gained from these dissipative atomic systems provide valuable insights for other quantum systems, including superconducting circuits, and inform efforts in autonomous error correction, non-Hermitian sensing, and the implementation of dissipative band structures in solid-state materials.
