Stephen Sorokanich
Quantum Fellow at Air Force Research Laboratories, Information Institute
Tuesday, July 22, 2025, 3:00-4:00 PM ET (1:00-2:00 PM MT)
In-person at Bldg. 101 LR-C* with VTC to Boulder 1-4072
Online at: Zoom Gov (email seminar chairs for link to talk)
Abstract: In this talk, I'll introduce aspects of quantum transduction, including transmission lines and amplifiers which are essential components in many transduction setups. Superconducting circuitry is the source of rich nonlinear phenomena, where novel media can be engineered capable of simulating field theories on chips.
Bio: Stephen Sorokanich is a Quantum Fellow with the Air Force Research Laboratory Information Directorate. He was a NRC postdoc in ACMD at NIST from 2022 to 2024.
