Research Summary:
 
       Among the four weeks I stayed at MIT, I was taught a lot. I was taught about how to search for a patent. I was taught how to efficiently manage my library of papers. I was also taught how to cite the papers I used while writing my own efficiently using Mendeley. I was also required to read a 50 page paper for the first time in life. Later I also had to do a presentation about the materials covered in it. I was also required to prove the correctness of the result derived by another paper.  
 
研究综述:
       在麻省理工学院的四个星期里,我受到了很多教育。我被教导如何寻找专利。我被教导如何有效地管理我的论文库。我也被教导如何引用我在写我自己的有效使用Mendeley文件。我还被要求在一生中第一次读一份50页的论文。后来我还得做一个关于它所涵盖的材料的介绍。我还被要求证明另一篇论文得出的结果的正确性。
 
       However, I think for me the two highlights of this research are:
       然而,我认为这项研究的两个亮点是:
 
 
 
       1st I learned how physics research are done. Before this experience, I have basically no clue what’s so ever about how should we approach a problem and do research about it. What kind of experiments do we need to do? How are we supposed to set things up to do these experiments? What are the current technological barriers that stops us from going from theory to proving it by doing experiments?  How are we going to learn from the results published by others?  These are all vital problems I need to know before I could go onto do my own research. Nowadays, quantum mechanics is no longer a brand new area of research, to achieve anything in this area, I will need to work on the shoulder of others. Without proper education about how to read others work, I will not be able to achieve anything. Without a clear mind of what process I need to follow, I will no tbe able to do any research on my own.
 
       第一我学会了物理研究是怎么做的。在这段经历之前,我基本上不知道我们应该如何解决问题并研究它。我们需要做什么样的实验?我们该怎么安排这些实验呢?现在的技术障碍是什么,阻止我们从理论到通过实验来证明它?我们如何从别人发表的结果中学到什么?在我着手研究之前,这些都是我需要了解的关键问题。如今,量子力学已不再是一个全新的研究领域,要想在这方面取得任何成就,我就需要在别人的肩膀上工作。没有适当的教育如何阅读别人的作品,我将一事无成。没有一个清楚的头脑,我需要遵循什么样的过程,我将不能自己做任何研究。
 
 
 
       2nd I learned about all different fields related to quantum mechanics. Before this experience, I am very interested in quantum mechanics. However, these interests are merely on the level of theoretical points and on the level of very limited areas like quantum key distribution. Throughout the 4 weeks at MIT, I was introduced to multiple researchers at MIT. They have introduced to me what they are doing research on. These includes things that seem completely irrelevant to quantum mechanics. For example, by using quantum mechanics, we could do better probing with radars. By using quantum mechanics, we could do imaging with better resolution. These technologies have already been realized in our daily life without me noticing them. Being not aware of them could heavily hinder my ability to do research. Because quantum mechanics is like a building material. With it alone, we could not do anything. Combining it with other things, many amazing things could be achieved. Knowing these “examples” of realization of current technologies related to quantum mechanics, I could then find my own field of interest which will also benefit with the use of quantum mechanics.
 
       第二我学习了所有与量子力学相关的领域。在这次经历之前,我对量子力学很感兴趣。然而,这些兴趣仅仅是在理论点上,在量子密钥分配等非常有限的领域。在麻省理工学院的4个星期里,我被介绍给麻省理工学院的多个研究人员。他们向我介绍了他们正在做的研究。这些包括与量子力学完全无关的东西。例如,通过使用量子力学,我们可以更好地探测雷达。利用量子力学,我们可以做更高分辨率的成像。这些技术已经在我们的日常生活中得到了实现,而我却没有注意到它们。不了解它们会严重妨碍我的研究能力。因为量子力学就像一种建筑材料。单靠它,我们什么也做不了。把它与其他事物结合起来,许多令人惊奇的事情就可以实现。通过了解这些与量子力学有关的当前技术的实现的例子,我可以找到自己感兴趣的领域,也将受益于量子力学的使用。
 
附,选拔环节的面试感受:
 
 
 
       First of all, I would like to thank you for your time. It is a pleasure talking to you via Skype. Although I have had some research experience with my professor in New York University, it was not about the field that I am most interested in, quantum computing. Despite of having read about some of the hot research topics that came up often in the news, I was not given the chance to participate in or even talk to researchers about those topics in the field of quantum computing. After an introduction about what you have been doing, I feel very excited about the possibility of researching and learning in these topics.
 
       首先,我要感谢你的时间。很高兴通过Skype与你交谈。虽然我和我的纽约大学教授有一些研究经验,但我最感兴趣的领域不是量子计算。尽管我已经读到了新闻中经常出现的一些热门研究课题,但我没有机会参与甚至与研究人员谈论量子计算领域中的那些话题。在介绍你所做的事情之后,我对能在这些问题上进行研究和学习感到非常兴奋。
 
 
 
       Secondly, I have never doubted or questioned about the reason why I wanted to do research in quantum computing. I understand that it is experimentally hard to research in the field of quantum computing due to the delicacy of coherent states. However, since the first class of quantum mechanics and quantum information, I have always been deeply fascinated by the difference between quantum mechanics and classical mechanics and the things we are able to do in quantum computing due to these differences. Initiated by your question today in the interview, I am now giving it a second thought about my reason of doing research in quantum computing. The fascination of quantum computing never faded for me. The more I learn, the more interested I am about it. Whether it is communicating via quantum key distribution or building a quantum computer, the more difficulty there is in the field, the more it makes me want to help make progress in these fields.
 
       第二,我从未怀疑或质疑我想从事量子计算研究的原因。我理解,由于相干态的精细性,在量子计算领域中的实验研究是很困难的。然而,自从第一代量子力学和量子信息以来,我一直对量子力学和经典力学的区别以及量子计算中由于这些差异所能做的事情深为着迷。由你们今天在采访中提出的问题引发的,我现在考虑一下我进行量子计算研究的原因。量子计算的魅力从未消退过。我学得越多,我对它就越感兴趣。无论是通过量子密钥分发或建立量子计算机进行通信,这个领域的难度就越大,我越想帮助在这些领域取得进展。
 
       Last but not least, I would really appreciate it if I am given the opportunity to participate in this summer research program at MIT. I look forward to both enhance my research experience and enjoy myself by studying and researching about the topics I love.  
        Best,
 
       最后但同样重要的是,如果能有机会参加麻省理工学院的暑期研究计划,我将不胜感激。我期待着通过研究和研究我喜欢的话题来增强我的研究经验和享受自己。
       最好的,
 
附:科研结束时演讲报告提纲
 
Final Presentation
 
       In this presentation, I shall first talk briefly about what the original paper is trying to do. Then, I will talk a little about what I have tried to do when I was trying to get the result that the author also got from the paper.
       在本次演讲中,我将首先简要地谈谈原文的内容。然后,我会说一些我想做的事情。
当我试图得到作者也从报纸上得到的结果时。
 
       Nextly, I shall talk a little about what interests me in both lectures Prof Z, Prof. X and S has talked to us about.
 
       接下来,我要谈谈我所感兴趣的是Z教授的讲座,X教授和S已经向我们。
 
       Finally, I shall end this presentation with something that I have figured is interesting that I have learned.
       最后,我将用我学到的有趣的东西结束这次演讲。
 
       But before I start my presentation, I would like to thank C for teaching me and helping me review some of the key concepts related in this project. I would not have been able to complete to this degree without his help.
 
 
 
       但在我开始演讲之前,我要感谢C老师教我,并帮助我复习了有关的一些关键概念。
 
       这个项目。没有他的帮助,我是不可能完成这个学位的。
 
       What are the three points: unit efficiency of detection, max entanglement , in two well defined single mode.
 
       三个要点是:单位探测效率,最大纠缠,在两个定义良好的单模中。
 
       The reason why we could not reach 2.8 CHSH is because that we have no photon , or multiple photon trials that both leads to CHSH value of that trial been 2 and we are not tossing them away now. So we definitely will not reach max.
 
       我们为什么不能达到2.8 CHSH是因为我们没有光子或多光子实验,导致CHSH价值
 
       那次审判是2次,我们现在不把他们扔了。所以我们肯定不会达到max。
 
       Note for myself: g and g bar measures how much entanglement there is between the two photons.
       注意:G和G条测量两个光子之间有多少纠缠。
