Michal Bajcsy
Assistant Professor
ELECTRICAL AND COMPUTER ENGINEERING
University of Waterloo
Canada
Biography
"Michal received both his PhD in Applied Physics and his Bachelor of Science in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Harvard University’s School of Engineering and Applied Sciences. His doctoral work was done under the supervision of Mikhail Lukin and included a demonstration of stationary light pulses and studies of interactions between tightly confined cold atoms and few-photon pulses in a hollow-core photonic-crystal fiber. During his PhD time, Michal also spent several years as a visiting student in the group of Vladan Vuletic at MIT. He completed his postdoctoral training in the Nanoscale and Quantum Photonics Lab of Jelena Vuckovic at Stanford University, where his research focused on experiments with solid-state cavity QED systems based on quantum dots embedded in photonic crystals."
Research Interest
Coupling of quantum emitters to nano-photonics structures Development of on-chip platforms for enhanced light-matter and light-light interactions Non-classical light sources and quantum memories based on mesoscopic ensembles of quantum emitters
