Harry Jeffrey Kimble (born April 23, 1949), was the William L. Valentine Professor and professor of physics at Caltech.[1] His research is in quantum optics and is noted for groundbreaking experiments in physics including one of the first demonstrations of teleportation of a quantum state (first demonstration is disputed with Anton Zeilinger),[2] quantum logic gate,[3] and the development of the first single atom laser.[4] According to Elizabeth Rogan, OSA CEO, "Jeff has led a revolution in modern physics through his pioneering research in the coherent control of the interactions of light and matter."[5] Kimble's main research focus is in quantum information science and the quantum dynamics of open systems.[1]
