Research overview

My group makes and measures electronic devices to study and exploit quantum behaviour. We use advanced tools of nanofabrication, low-temperature physics, and electronics to study delicate quantum effects and to exploit them for new technologies. Our focus is on semiconductor quantum dots, carbon nanotubes and fullerenes, and superconducting devices. For details of recent and ongoing experiments, see my group website.

PhD supervision

Please contact me if you are interested in a PhD in quantum electronic devices. My group webpage has details of available projects.
