معرفی
Jaya Venkatraman is a Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB), working under Ania Jayich. Previously, she completed her Ph.D. in Physics at Yale University in 2023 under Michel Devoret. Her research focuses on experimental condensed matter physics, particularly in driven quantum systems and superconducting circuits. She investigates methods to control effective Hamiltonians in quantum systems, with applications to quantum technologies.
Education:
- Ph.D. in Physics, Yale University, 2023
Awards:
- 2016 Leigh Page Prize
Research Interests: Jaya explores the interplay between driven classical and quantum systems, leveraging these insights to engineer novel quantum applications. Her work includes manipulating parametric processes in superconducting circuits to achieve robust quantum states, such as super-protected cat qubits. Her experimental investigations into degeneracies in quantum double-well systems reveal hidden symmetries and offer pathways for quantum control.
