Biography
Her research focuses on nonlinear and quantum optical phenomena in metamaterials and quantum materials, leveraging advanced nanotechnologies such as MEMS. Her work spans nanophotonics, quantum optics, metamaterials, integrated photonics, and nanofabrication, with applications in novel light sources, detectors, and reconfigurable photonic systems.
She received the Rising Star of Light Award in 2024, the Harvard Quantum Initiative (HQI) Fellowship in 2021, and the Harvard Hong Kong Jockey Club Fellowship in 2017.
Prof. Tang is actively seeking highly self-motivated prospective postdoctoral researchers, graduate students, and visiting scholars in the areas of nanophotonics, nanofabrication and manufacturing, MEMS, and related fields. Candidates with experience in nanofabrication, optical experiments, or computational photonics are especially encouraged to apply.
