Dr. Chung-Ting Ke graduated from Duke University by receiving several awards including a teaching award from the American Association of Physics Teachers and the Fritz London graduate award. After his Ph. D. study, he joined QuTech at the Technology University of Delft, The Netherlands. Recently he started as an assistant research fellow in the Institute of Physics, Academia Sinica.

His focus is to develop topological superconducting systems using hybrid 2D materials. During his Ph.D., he demonstrated the coexistence of supercurrent and quantum Hall edge states in pristine graphene Josephson junctions, an important first step to explore the topological superconductivity using the quantum Hall effect. The result was reported in Science in 2016. During his postdoctoral research, in collaboration with Microsoft station Q, he worked on the InSb quantum wells to develop a scalable topological system. He demonstrated ballistic superconductivity in InSb quantum wells. This ability of control over the junction phase makes the topological superconductivity phase better accessible.

Dr. Ke started as an assistant research fellow in the Institute of Physics, Academia Sinica since September, 2021. He will continue to work on developing the topological superconducting system based on pristine 2D and 1D hybrid materials.
