Keith C. Schwab
Professor of Applied Physics
B.A., University of Chicago, 1990; Ph.D., University of California, 1996. Associate Professor, Caltech, 2009-10; Professor, 2010-; Fletcher Jones Foundation Co-Director, Kavli Nanoscience Institute, 2013-15.
Research interests: quantum-limited measurements, ultra-low temperature physics, superfluid physics, quantum devices and technology, nanotechnology, ultra-sensitive microwave measurement
Overview
Professor Schwab's current focus is the development of Josephson junctions for superfluid helium-4 with the goal to build quantum devices such as interferometers and quantum bits from this material. What makes this now possible are the advances in 2d nanometerials with nanometer pores.
