Press Clipping: JILA and NIST Fellow Jun Ye's Work Highlighted in Optica OPN

Submitted by kennac on

A recent article in Optica OPN highlights an exciting advancement in gas detection technology, showcasing how frequency combs—pioneered by JILA researchers—are revolutionizing precision spectroscopy. The study explores how frequency combs improve the sensitivity and accuracy of detecting trace gases in real-time, providing a powerful tool for atmospheric monitoring, industrial safety, and medical diagnostics.

I am a postdoc working on the KRb experiment, where we aim to probe novel quantum phases of matter and spin dynamics that arise from the dipolar interactions between these ultracold polar molecules. I obtained my PhD in Bas van de Meerakker’s lab, where we investigated scattering resonances in low-energy molecular collisions.

Humans of JILA: Jake Higgins
