Yuan Zhan
Yuan obtained his BS from Peking University in 2019, and subsequently joined the Sun Group as a Physics PhD student at the University of Colorado Boulder. His undergraduate research mainly focused on theoretical and experimental studies of quantum simulation with cold atoms in shaken optical lattices. He is currently interested in light-matter interactions in nanophotonic systems, generation of highly-entangled states and their applications in quantum communication and quantum computation.

The Physics Frontiers Centers (PFC) program supports university-based centers and institutes where the collective efforts of a larger group of individuals can enable transformational advances in the most promising research areas. The program is designed to foster major breakthroughs at the intellectual frontiers of physics by providing needed resources such as combinations of talents, skills, disciplines, and/or specialized infrastructure, not usually available to individual investigators or small groups, in an environment in which the collective efforts of the larger group can be shown to be seminal to promoting significant progress in the science and the education of students. PFCs also include creative, substantive activities aimed at enhancing education, broadening participation of traditionally underrepresented groups, and outreach to the scientific community and general public.
