Hanhee Paik is a South Korean experimental quantum computing researcher[1] who works for IBM Research at the Thomas J. Watson Research Center, where she helps develop superconducting devices for storing and operating on qubits.[2]

Education and career

Paik has a master's degree from Yonsei University in South Korea,[1] and completed a doctorate at the University of Maryland, College Park.[1][2]

After postdoctoral research at the University of Maryland Laboratory for Physical Sciences,[1] she took a position at Yale University.[1][2] In 2012 she left academia to become a researcher for BNN Technology PLC, and in 2014 she began her present position at IBM research.[1] At IBM, her work has been included in the IBM Quantum Experience and IBM Q System One projects.[2]

Recognition

In 2021, Paik was named a Fellow of the American Physical Society (APS), after a nomination from the APS Forum on Industrial & Applied Physics, "for pioneering a novel superconducting qubit architecture that catalyzed the commercialization of superconducting quantum computing, and for contributions to advance quantum computing research in the industry".[3]
