PhD

Study of one dimensional semiconducting nanowires and carbon nanotubes for the development of topological qubits

[30-01-2017]

We study quantum transport and quantum optics in semiconducting nanowires and carbon nanotubes. We have various projects aiming to develop (spin) qubits, understand and control spin-orbit interaction, single-electron to single-photon conversion, induced-superconductivity, topological phases and the creation of Majorana Fermions as new particles in condensed matter systems.
