Biography
Shingo Kono is a postdoctoral scholar at EPFL in the group of Tobias Kippenberg at the Laboratory of Photonics and Quantum Measurements from 2021. He currently holds a Marie-Curie Individual Fellowship, working on the hybrid quantum system of electromechanical devices and superconducting quantum circuits, as well as the optical readout of superconducting qubits. He obtained his PhD at the University of Tokyo under the supervision of Yasunobu Nakamura in 2019. His PhD research was focused on quantum measurement of itinerant microwave photons using superconducting quantum circuits. Then, he joined the Superconducting Quantum Electronics group led by Yasunobu Nakamura at RIKEN, working on the application of waveguide quantum electrodynamics in superconducting circuits until 2020.Education
