Hassan A. Bukhari
Physics PhD candidate at the University of Iowa, researching quantum information and quantum sensing. My research focuses on investigating solid-state systems, quantum coherence, and the microscopic noise sources that limit sensitivity.
Research
What I work on.
Quantum information
Solid-state platforms for quantum information — coherence, decoherence, and control of quantum degrees of freedom.
Quantum sensing
Sensitivity limits of solid-state quantum sensors, including sensor designs built around exceptional points.
Rare-earth ions in photonics
Quantum coherence of rare-earth ions in heterogeneous photonic interfaces and hybrid semiconductor structures.
Charge & surface noise
Microscopic origins of noise at surfaces — drift-diffusion charge fluctuations and their effect on solid-state devices.
