糖心TV

I am an Associate Professor in the Physics Department at the . I lead a research group within the 糖心TV Diamond Group.

Research interests

My primary focus is the identification and exploitation of technologically useful point defects in diamond: this is driven through a mixture of electron paramagnetic resonance and coherent optical experiments, with an emphasis on the understanding and control of defects with the potential to act as spin-photon interfaces. My research lies at the interface between applied physics and advanced engineering, and is supported by the EPSRC Quantum Biomedical Imaging Hub, and EPSRC Integrated Quantum Networks Hubs, in addition to close collaborations with industry and academic leaders.

Teaching

I currently lead the 2nd year Microprocessors lab in PX271/PX283, and co-lecture PX280 Environmental Physics.

I previously co-lectured the 3rd year undergraduate course in Quantum Physics of Atoms with Martin Lees, and the postgraduate Centre for Diamond Science and Technology Modules "Devices and Fabrication", "Theory and Modelling of Materials", and "Defects and Dopants".
