Nanoscale magnetic imaging using quantum assisted techniques mikhail lukin
Early life

Lukin was born in Moscow, Russia. He took lessons in physics and mathematics at the MIPT which he completed by 1993. Following the completion, he joined Texas A&M University where he wrote a research paper entitled Quantum Coherence and Interference in Optics and Laser Spectroscopy which he used for his dissertation of Ph.D. Between this and 1994 he was a visiting scientist to Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics in Garching, Germany. Later on he became a postdoc at Texas A&M University and then became a fellow, and later joint director, of the Institute for Theoretical Atomic and Molecular Physics a division of Harvard–Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics. In 2001 he became an assistant professor at Harvard and three years later became its professor.
Research

In 2005 he proposed an idea to use quantum computing mail rather than Email which is already used by both Harvard and Boston Universities. In 2013 he and Vladan Vuletic have developed a new type of matter in which photonic molecules can be used to create a lightsaber-like technology.
