Yi-hua Tang received his Ph.D. in low-temperature physics from the University of Florida in 1987. He worked in the private sector from 1991 to 1996 in the field of Josephson arrays and voltage standards. He joined the Quantum Electrical Metrology Division, National Institute of Standards and Technology, Gaithersburg, Maryland in January 1997 and working on the Josephson voltage standard and its applications in metrology. He is responsible for maintaining the U.S. legal volt and providing for the dissemination of an internationally consistent and traceable voltage standard tied to the SI units. His research interest is to develop applications of Josephson technology for dc and ac voltage metrology. Dr. Tang is a member of the American Physical Society.
