Dr. Yang Yang
Yang is a postdoctoral researcher working on a spin-squeezed optical atomic clock. His research focuses on quantum metrology, particularly exploring and applying many-particle entangled states to enhance measurement sensitivity beyond classical limits. His ongoing projects aim to push the boundaries of timekeeping and probe fundamental physics, contributing to a deeper understanding of the universe. Yang earned his Ph.D. in Physics from University of Science and Technology of China (USTC), where he worked on quantum precision measurement of the electric dipole moment of ytterbium atoms.

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.
