Physicist You Chenglong has left the United States to take up a full-time position in China after working for more than a decade in the strategically important fields of quantum sensing and precision measurement.<\/p>\n
Previously based at Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge, You is regarded as a fast-rising researcher in his field.<\/p>\n
According to Chinese media reports, he joined the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (UESTC) in Chengdu as a professor this month.<\/p>\n
UESTC has been on the US government\u2019s export-control Entity List since 2012 due to its cutting-edge research into defence-related technology such as radars and electronic warfare.<\/p>\n
While his name has not yet appeared on UESTC\u2019s publicly available faculty listings, You\u2019s Google Scholar profile lists the Chinese university as his current affiliation.<\/p>\n
You has been asked for comment.<\/p>\n
He earned his PhD in physics from LSU in 2019, studying how light can be used to push measurements to their absolute limits, work that underpins technology ranging from ultra-precise navigation sensors to gravitational-wave detection.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Physicist You Chenglong has left the United States to take up a full-time position in China after working…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":707517,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[3845],"tags":[212362,91991,1395,172170,212358,212357,20306,212359,74,212360,70,212361,16,15,978,212363],"class_list":["post-707516","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-physics","tag-baton-rouge","tag-chengdu","tag-china","tag-cleo","tag-emil-wolf-outstanding-student-paper-competition","tag-google-scholar","tag-louisiana-state-university","tag-optica","tag-physics","tag-quantum-physics-and-engineering-laboratory","tag-science","tag-uestc","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-us","tag-you-chenglong"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115924677626923588","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/707516","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=707516"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/707516\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/707517"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=707516"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=707516"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=707516"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
