Biography:  Mehmet Emre Tasgin

 

Mehmet Emre Tasgin received his B.S. and PhD degrees in Physics at Bilkent University, in 2003 and 2009. His PhD advisors are Prof. Mehmet Özgür Oktel and Özgür E. Müstecaplıoğlu, and his thesis concerns light propagation and quantum information on coherent media, and electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in Bose-Einstein condensates.

    He performed a one-year post-doc with Özgür E. Müstecaplıoğlu at Koç University in 2010. He worked in the DPT (State Planning Organization) Project for the establishment of a Quantum Cryptology Center in Turkey. He did another one-year post-doc with Pierre Meystre (Editor in Chief of American Physical Society journals) in the College of Optics, at the University of Arizona, in 2011. He studied on the quantum precision measurements and spin-squeezing.

Between 2012-2014 he worked in the Kırklareli University at the department of Electrical & Electronics Engineering. Till 2014 he continues his research at the Institute of Nuclear Sciences in Hacettepe University, Ankara. He also has several papers with M. Suhail Zubairy, one of the founders of quantum optics.

His current research interests are integrated quantum circuits, nanoscale quantum optics, nonlinear optics, light propagation in highly dispersive media and cold atoms. He is one of the rare persons who has developed his own entanglement criteria for many-particle systems including spin ensembles and lattice systems.

He is the winner of 2017 TUBA GEBIP and 2018 ODTU Parlar awards. He is one of the cofounders of KOBIT, Quantum Optics and Information Meeting in Turkey.
