Yiyang Zhi
Yiyang Zhi obtained his B.S. in Physics at Case Western Reserve University, where for his thesis he worked on deterministic tuning of random lasers for integrated photonics and biomedical applications. He is currently a second year Ph.D. student at UC Berkeley working with Professor Ming Wu on active integrated photonics for quantum processors using trapped ions systems. He has another research thrust on incorporating on-chip logic onto optical switches in a zero change photonics stack to tackle the electrical I/O problems in optical MEMs.
