Debabrata Goswami
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Debabrata Goswami, is an Indian spectroscopist, winner of the Wellcome Trust Senior Research Fellow Award (2004), Swarnajayanti Award (2004), presently Associate Professor of Chemistry at the Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur.
Career: Goswami received his M.Sc at the Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur in 1988. Later, he received his Ph.D. at the Princeton University. He first presented his important paper on the optical approach to Quantum Computer in the year 2002 while he was a scientist at the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research in Bombay. His most recent work is on using optical approaches for Adiabatic Quantum Compting to design scalable quantum computers. He is one of the few current experimentalists correlating optical computing to quantum computing. He has edited a volume from Springer/AIP Series on "Quantum Computing: Back Action" [1] which takes stock of the present achievements of Quantum Computing and is a forward-looking volume on the impact of the field into the future.
His research interests are design of femtosecond laser pulses to control and implement algorithms for fundamental problems in network and combinatorial optimization; quantum computing; bio-imaging; coherent control.
Honors and awards:
- Hoechst Advanced Technology Division Industrial Affiliates Fellowship at Princeton University
