2012 Nobel Prize in Physics - Dave Wineland

The Nobel citation notes that Wineland and Haroche's methods have enabled science to take "the very first steps towards building a new type of super fast computer based on quantum physics. Perhaps the quantum computer will change our everyday lives...

2007 Alexander M. Cruickshank Award - Dave Wineland

Typically, there will be one such lectureship annually for each of the principal subdisciplines of the Conferences, namely the Biological, Chemical, and Physical sciences. At its discretion, the Board may occasionally elect additional Alexander M...

2006 APS Fellow - Dietrich Leibfried

For seminal contributions to the field of Quantum Information Processing using trapped ions including the demonstration of high fidelity logic gates and the implementation and application of entangled states.
David Wineland

1998 I.I. Rabi Award - Dave Wineland

For the first laser cooling of any atomic species and the demonstration of innovative methods for laser cooling of trapped ions, providing the foundation for the next generation of atomic frequency standards.
