Welcome to Dr. Wang
Yao's group
We are a theoretical group working in
an interdisciplinary field across condensed matter physics, quantum physics, and optical physics.
Our research interests cover open quantum systems and quantum environment,
quantum controls, cavity quantum electrodynamics, semiconductor
optics, and topological quantum transport.

Research Highlights
Quantum computing by optical control of electron spins,
Ren-Bao Liu,Wang Yao,
and L. J. Sham,
Adv. Phys. 59, 703 (2010).
We review
the progress and main challenges in implementing large-scale
quantum computing by optical control of electron spins in
quantum dots. [Article

Optically controlled locking of the nuclear field via coherent
dark-state spectroscopy,
Xiaodong Xu,Wang Yao,
Bo Sun, D. G. Steel, A. S. Bracker, D. Gammon
and L. J. Sham,
Nature. 459, 1105 (2009).
We report
the suppression of nuclear field fluctuations in a singly
charged QD as shown by an enhancement of the single electron
spin dephasing time by a factor up to several hundred. [Article
