• Postdoctoral Research Fellow

  • Jan 2017 - Jul 2020

  Conducting research at the School of Mathematical and Physical Sciences at the University of Technology, Sydney, focusing on the study of nanomaterials, such as diamond, for the development of novel nanotechnologies in optics, photonics and solid-state physics. Areas of expertise: laser physics, confocal and atomic force microscopy (AFM), single-photon detection, optically detected magnetic resonance (ODMR), chemical vapour deposition (CVD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and nanomanipulation, optical trapping. I am currently investigating the properties of fluorescent colour centres in nanodiamond materials and how these can be harnessed for advancing quantum information technologies and quantum computing, as well as biological marking and tracking, medical imaging and single-spin sensing.

Areas of expertise: laser physics, confocal and atomic force microscopy (AFM), single-photon detection and optically detected magnetic resonance (ODMR). I specifically investigated the properties of diamond materials as they are host to colour centres, i.e. crystallographic impurities, with unique spin and optical properties. Identified future applications include: quantum information technologies and quantum computing, biological marking and tracking, medical imaging and single-spin sensing. Show less
