Biography

Amir Hamed Majedi is a Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Waterloo. He is cross-appointed in the Department of Physics and Astronomy as well as the Department of Applied Mathematics. Professor Majedi leads the Integrated Quantum Optoelectronics Lab (IQOL) at the Waterloo Institute for Nanotechnology. His main research interests are in engineering quantum electrodynamics with a focus on superconducting optoelectronics and quantum photonics. His research activities include the development of superconducting nanowire single photon detectors, single photon sources based on nanowire quantum dots, and superconducting plasmonic detectors. The IQOL investigates quantum electromagnetic phenomena in superconducting micro to nano-scale structures to advance optoelectronic and millimeter-wave/terahertz photonic devices and systems. The group also aims to develop theoretical foundations, design methodologies, and characterization techniques to create superconductive quantum devices applicable to ultrafast communications and quantum information processing.
