Arthur Lin received a B.S. in physics from Georgia Tech. He recently completed a Ph.D. in physics from the University of Maryland doing theoretical research with Garnett Bryant. His thesis work focused on studies of InAs/GaBiAs quantum dot molecules using atomistic tight-binding theory to understand the effects of Bi on hole states in these nanosystems. Results were used to understand how alloying with Bi can be used to modify interdot barriers and enhance interdot hole coupling and spin mixing. Currently he is a postdoctoral associate with Charles Tahan at the University of Maryland, using the tight-binding simulation tools to study the use of holes in Ge/SiGe quantum dots as qubits for quantum computing.
