Prof. Kejie Fang in Electrical and Computer Engineering has Openings for Graduate Students

Prof. Kejie Fang in Electrical and Computer Engineering has openings for graduate students. Our lab focuses on development of new devices and methodology for photonic integrated systems and photonic quantum information technology, as well as exploring novel quantum nano-structures and materials for emergent light-matter interactions. Our research cross-fertilizes ideas and techniques from several fields of science and engineering including micro-optics, NEMS, and quantum optics, and offers rich opportunities for teaching and training of graduate researchers in device physics, fabrication, and testing.

Interested students should contact Prof. Fang (kfang3@illinois.edu) with a complete CV, accompanied by a short paragraph highlighting relevant practical experience and coursework.
