Jeremy Levy
The mission of the LevyLab is to explore novel phenomena in solid state systems in order to provide the physical foundation for future technologies. Their research centers around a number of intersecting areas including:
- oxide nanoelectronics
- experimental realizations for quantum computation
- semiconductor and oxide spintronics
- quantum transport
- nanoscale superconductivity
- nanoscale optics
- lattice phenomena and ferroelectricity
Dr. Levy is Director of the Pittsburgh Quantum Institute, the Center for Oxide-Semiconductor Materials for Quantum Computation, a Multidisciplinary University Research Initiative (MURI) on Quantum Preservation, Simulation and Transfer in Oxide Nanostructures, and a NSF Nanoelectronics for 2020 and Beyond program, and a Class of 2015 National Security Science and Engineering Faculty Fellow (NSSEFF).

Jennifer Laaser received her B.S. in Chemistry from Yale University and her Ph.D. in Physical Chemistry from the University of Wisconsin-Madison where she developed new methods in ultrafast spectroscopy for investigating the structure and dynamics of molecules at interfaces. She then joined the University of Minnesota as a postdoctoral associate to work on the detailed understanding of micelle-based polyelectrolyte complexes for gene delivery applications. She finally joined the faculty at the University of Pittsburgh in August 2016, where she is now hard at work setting up a new research group straddling the boundary between physical chemistry, polymer physics, and polymeric materials.
Jung-Kun Lee received his B.S and M.S. in Inorganic Materials Engineering from the Seoul National University in Korea. He also received his Ph.D in Materials Science & Engineering from the same university. He then won the highly competitive Director’s Postdoctoral Fellowship of Los Alamos National Laboratory in 2002. He worked there for more than five years, with a promotion to technical staff member in January, 2005. He finally joined the Department of Mechanical Engineering and Materials Science at the University of Pittsburgh in 2007. Jung Kun Lee holds more than 10 patents on the dielectric and optical applications of functional materials.
