Dr. Xiao Tang, supervisory physicist, leads the Quantum Networks project in the Advanced Network Technologies Division (ANTD) in the Information Technology Laboratory (ITL) at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). He joined NIST's ITL in June 1998. Currently, Xiao Tang concentrates on the research and development of quantum information and quantum key distribution networks. Prior to that, he was a group leader managing the research activities in the Information Storage and Integrated Systems (ISIS) group and became leader of the NIST quantum communication testbed hardware group in 2001. For his excellent research work he received NIST's Jacob Rabinow Applied Research Award in 2003; the Bronze Medal Award issued by US Department of Commerce in 2005. The following are a selection of his representative papers: " Hai Xu, Lijun Ma, Alan Mink, Barry Hershman, and Xiao Tang, "1310-nm quantum key distribution system with up-conversion pump wavelength at 1550 nm", Optics Express, Vol. 15, Issue 12, PP. 7248 (June 2007).

 Position: Supervisory Physicist
Mathematical and Computational Sciences Division Quantum Communications Employment History:Before joining NIST, Xiao Tang was a research associate professor in the Materials Science Research Center at Howard University, Washington DC. In the latter 1980's, he was a deputy director of Pohl Institute of Solid State Physics and an associate professor in the Department of Physics at Tongji University, Shanghai. In the early 1970's, he and his colleagues developed the first Chinese semiconductor laser, which was contineously operated at room temperature, in the Institute of Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences in Beijing. He has published over 70 scientific research papers and many conference proceedings.
