Iliya Esin
I am a Postdoctoral Scholar Research Associate in Theoretical Physics in the condensed matter theory group at Caltech. My research interests are in the field of non-equilibrium quantum control. I am exploring tailored setups and protocols that drive the quantum state of the system toward a specific target non-equilibrium state. I am particularly interested in novel tunable platforms, such as the 2D Van der Waals materials and heterostructures, and synthetic matter realized within the atomic molecular and optical framework. I aim to utilize their unique properties to realize states for new device paradigms with applications spanning electronics, metrology, and quantum information.
My research interests include:
Realization of novel periodic drives such as phonon lasers and THz sources.
Unconventional electronic states in externally driven systems.
Stability of driven many-body systems and quantum heating.
