Manas Sajjan works at the intersection of quantum computing and quantum chemistry, studying how quantum systems such as trapped ions and molecules can be controlled, simulated, and understood using tools like reduced-density-matrix theory. Their work spans building experimental hardware for trapped-ion quantum simulators and developing theoretical methods to predict electronic and transport properties of molecules. This research could interest students wanting to work on quantum hardware, quantum simulation, or theoretical quantum chemistry.
Publication output grew notably from 2018 through 2023, peaking at 11 papers in 2023, with a modest decline in the most recent years (2024-2026).
