Chicago Quantum Profile: Joe Heremans
From the Chicago Quantum Exchange: Joe Heremans is a staff scientist at Argonne National Laboratory, where he works on wide-bandgap solid-state materials systems with individual atomic defects. These defects “trap” an electron whose spin state can be manipulated with lasers, electric and strain fields, and microwaves. These systems have promising applications in quantum communication and sensing. Read More
