Bright is a Ph.D. candidate in Electrical Engineering & Computer Science at MIT. Working as a graduate research assistant in the Quantum Coherent Electronics group under Prof. Kevin O'Brien, his research is focused on novel superconducting quarton couplers that could facilitate ultrastrong cross-Kerr between superconducting qubits and microwave photons. He is interested in applications such as ultrafast superconducting qubit readout, gates, and single microwave photon detection.
