Charalampos is joining Heriot-Watt University after completing his Masters of Physics at the University of Strathclyde and during his PhD he’ll be investigating spin control in SiC quantum devices. Welcome to the QPL group Charalampos!

Yashar Alizadeh is joining us after submitting his PhD thesis in the spectroscopy and crystal field analysis of rare-earth doped low-site symmetry crystals at the University of Canterbury, New Zealand. He’ll be working on developing quantum memory with crystals stoichiometric in rare-earth ions.

Huge congratulations to Mauro who has been awarded a Royal Society University Research Fellowship and is due to take up his new post in October 2021 – ‘Semiconductors with a Twist: Engineering Programmable Quantum Materials’. Through this fellowship Mauro aims to engineer new quantum materials based on 2D semiconductor heterostructures. To address fundamental questions about…
