Self-Assembled InAs/GaAs Coupled Quantum Dots for Quantum Science and Technologies
BIO
Dr. Michael Scheibner is Associate Professor in the Department of Physics at the University of California at Merced. Since his arrival on campus in 2009 he has been building up the semiconductor optics and quantum materials research at UC Merced. Dr. Scheibner earned his M Sc in physics at the University of New Mexico where he was engaged in both, astronomy and semiconductor optics research. He received his Diplom Physiker degree and his doctoral degree in Physics from the University of Würzburg, in Germany, for studies on the dynamics of locally interacting spin carriers in low dimensional semiconductor structures. As a postdoctoral researcher at the Naval Research Laboratory in Washington DC, he started exploring the controlled coupling of quantum dots. His current research interest is in the optics of solid state based coupled quantum systems at the interface between quantum and mechanical motion.
