H. Jeff Kimble is the William L. Valentine Professor and Professor of Physics at Caltech. His research is in quantum optics and is noted for groundbreaking experiments in physics including one of the first demonstrations of teleportation of a quantum state, quantum logic gate, and the development of the first single atom laser. He is widely regarded as a pioneer of cavity quantum electrodynamics in achieving strong coupling between single atoms and photons in the optical domain. He was also among the first to achieve a squeezed state of light.
Kimble is a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, the American Physical Society, and the Optical Society of America, and is a member of the National Academy of Sciences.
