Welcome to the ARL-UMD partnership for quantum electrodynamics—AMPED—research homepage. We are a cooperative team of researchers at the University of Maryland, College Park and the DEVCOM Army Research Laboratory focused on exploring and exploiting quantum electrodynamics for scientific discovery and technological impact. Our expertise spans cold neutral atoms, trapped ions, quantum optics, and superconducting circuits, allowing us to leverage disparate experimental platforms to solve critical challenges in quantum sensing, quantum information, and quantum simulation.

Alexey Gorshkov
Alexey Gorshkov is an adjunct professor in the Department of Physics and UMIACS. He is also a physicist in the Quantum Measurement Division of NIST and a Fellow in the Joint Center for Quantum Information and Computer Science (QuICS) and the Joint Quantum Institute.
Gorshkov leads a theoretical research group working at the interface of quantum information science, quantum optics, atomic and molecular physics, and condensed matter physics. The long-term goals of the group are to understand and control large interacting quantum systems, as well as to design and create new ones.
