In 1996, Han Yongjian entered the Department of Physics at the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC). He graduated in 2000 with a degree in Optics from the Department of Physics at USTC. He then pursued his master's and doctoral studies consecutively, obtaining his Ph.D. in Optics from the Department of Physics at USTC in 2005. From August 2006 to April 2010, he conducted postdoctoral research at the University of Michigan. In May 2010, he was appointed as a specially-appointed professor at the School of Physical Sciences at USTC. In 2018, he was appointed as a research fellow.
His primary interests lie in the field of quantum information and the quantum simulation of strongly correlated systems. Currently, his main focus is on using simple quantum systems such as ion traps, quantum dots, quantum memory, and linear optics to realize quantum networks.
