Jainendra K. Jain received his Ph.D. in 1985 from Stony Brook University, where he returned in 1989 as a faculty member, before moving to Pennsylvania State University in 1998 as the Erwin W. Mueller Professor of Physics.
Jain is a theoretical condensed matter physicist interested in exotic quantum states of electrons in low dimensions. He is known for predicting the topological particle called composite fermion, namely an electron binding an even number of quantum mechanical vortices, and for explaining the fractional quantum Hall effect as the integral quantum ...
