Libai Huang use optical microscopy to capture light-matter interactions (IMAGE)
Caption
With a microscopy technique she developed, Purdue University’s Libai Huang is able to see quantum particles moving through materials at a rate of up to 1 quadrillion (that’s 1,000,000,000,000,000) images per second, helping to establish the rules that advance computer chips, solar cells and LEDs, and quantum computing. In many ways, Huang’s work is about making the invisible visible, creating a foundation for a new generation of quantum materials with properties that can be engineered rather than discovered by chance.
