I’m interested in all kinds of science, especially mathematics and quantum physics. After my Ph. D. study in topological insulators, I started my adventure in semiconductor quantum optics. Following the discovery of dynamical birefringence, I moved to UCSB, guiding the experiment group towards measuring electronic structures including Berry curvatures with high-order sideband generation.
Currently, I’m working on high harmonic generation and high-order sideband generation in semiconductors, aiming at exploring many-body physics.
