American physicist
Wineland in Stockholm, 2012 David Jeffery Wineland [ 1] [ 2] American physicist at the Physical Measurement Laboratory of theNational Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). His most notable contributions include thelaser cooling of trapped ions and the use of ions forquantum-computing operations. He received the 2012Nobel Prize in Physics , jointly withSerge Haroche , for "ground-breaking experimental methods that enable measuring and manipulation of individual quantum systems."[ 3] [ 4]
Early life and career [ edit ] Wineland was born in Wauwatosa, Wisconsin. He lived in Denver until he was three years old, at which time his family moved toSacramento, California .[ 5] Encina High School in Sacramento in 1961.[ 6] University of California, Davis . He received his bachelor's degree in physics from theUniversity of California, Berkeley in 1965 and his master's and doctoral degrees in physics fromHarvard University .[ 5] Norman Foster Ramsey, Jr. [ 7] Hans Dehmelt 's group at theUniversity of Washington where he investigated electrons inion traps . In 1975, he joined the National Bureau of Standards (now calledNIST ), where he started the ion storage group and is on the physics faculty of theUniversity of Colorado at Boulder . In January 2018, Wineland moved to the Department of PhysicsUniversity of Oregon as aKnight Research Professor ,[ 8]
Wineland was the first to laser-cool ions in 1978. His NIST group uses trapped ions in many experiments on fundamental physics, and quantum state control. They have demonstrated optical techniques to prepare ground, superposition and entangled states. This work has led to advances in spectroscopy,atomic clocks and quantum information. In 1995 he created the first single atom quantum logic gate and was the first to quantum teleport information in massive particles in 2004.[ 9] [ 10]
Wineland is a fellow of theAmerican Physical Society and[ 11] National Academy of Sciences in 1992.[ 12] French physicistSerge Haroche "for ground-breaking experimental methods that enable measuring and manipulation of individual quantum systems."[ 3]
Wineland is married to Sedna Quimby-Wineland, and they have two sons.[ 13]
Sedna Helen Quimby is the daughter of George I. Quimby (1913-2003), an archaeologist andanthropologist , who was Professor of Anthropology at theUniversity of Washington and Director of the Thomas Burke Memorial Washington State Museum, and his wife Helen Ziehm Quimby.[ 14]
Wineland was a keynote speaker at the 2015 Congress of Future Science and Technology Leaders.
