Chen-Lung Hung studies ultracold atomic gases—clouds of atoms cooled to near absolute zero so their quantum wave-like behavior becomes visible and controllable. His work explores how these quantum gases behave in two-dimensional traps, including phenomena like solitons (stable, localized wave packets) and vortices, and he also builds hybrid systems combining cold atoms with nanoscale photonic structures (tiny engineered structures that guide light) to study new ways atoms and light can interact.
