Mabuchi Lab:
For the last several years now we have been involved in a collaborative effort with the Mabuchi Group at Caltech (now at Stanford) to integrate so-called "atom-chips", which can manipulate clouds of ultra-cold neutral atoms with magnetic fields generated from on-chip microwires, with microphotonic chips that contain small-volume, high-Q resonant optical elements in which single atom-photon interactions are greatly enhanced. Beyond just single atom detection, such integrated chips are being developed as a key hardware piece of a quantum repeater, a device that could be utilized within a quantum network for distributing entangled resources and sending secret keys over long distances.

Krishna Group:
We are working with the research group led by Sanjay Krishna at the Center for High Technology Materials (CHTM) in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Professor Krishna's group provides the expertise in the design and growth of InAs self-assembled quantum dots emitting in the 1300 nm wavelength band used in our cavity-QED research. We are also working with Prof. Krishna's group to develop quantum dot mid-IR detectors with enhanced spectral selectivity and sensitivity.

Center for Nanoscale Science and Technology:
Our research on InAs QD cavity-QED continues, in collaboration with Kartik Srinivasan, now at the CNST within the National Institute of Standards and Technology in Gaithersburg, MD.

Hewlett-Packard Quantum Science Research Group:
We are loosely collaborating with a group led by Ray Beausoleil within the QSR department at HP Labs in Palo Alto, CA. Most directly, we have worked with Paul Barclay and Charles Santori on the development of color centers in diamond for solid-state quantum infomation processing.

Vahala Group:
We are working Prof. Kerry Vahala's research group at Caltech to develop nanoscale optomechanical devices for advanced metrology (sensors), RF-over-optical, and quantum nano-mechanical applications.
