Progress, Potential, and Possibilities Podcast / Show How Quantum Technology Will Transform The Future - Dr. Javad Shabani, Ph.D. - Director, NYU Quantum Institute - Director, Center of Quantum Information Physics
Dr. Javad Shabani, Ph.D. ( https://as.nyu.edu/faculty/javad-shabani.html ) is Professor of Physics; Director of the Center of Quantum Information Physics ( https://as.nyu.edu/departments/physics/research/center-for-quantum-information-physics.html ); Director of the NYU Quantum Institute; and member of the Affiliated Faculty, NYU-Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology Global Innovation and Research Institute ( https://www.nyu.edu/research/nyu-kaist.html ).
Dr. Shabani’s team of engineers is focused on building hybrid semiconductor–superconductor systems designed to make quantum bits — or qubits — more stable, scalable, and ultimately practical.
Dr. Shabani’s work ( https://wp.nyu.edu/shabanilab/ ) sits at the intersection of materials science, condensed matter physics, and quantum engineering — and could determine whether quantum computing becomes a transformative technology for medicine, materials discovery, cryptography, and beyond.
Dr. Shabani received his Ph.D. from Princeton University in 2011. After two years of research on semiconductor-based qubits at Harvard University, he joined UC Santa Barbara. There, he worked closely with Microsoft research on hybrid semiconductors/superconductors heterostructures to study topological superconductivity.
Dr. Shabani is also Co-Founder and CSO of QuantumMatter Inc. ( https://quantummatter.com/ ), a quantum hardware startup developing high-performance components that will power the next generation of quantum tech.
