Research Interests

I am an experimental physicist, with interests in spin-related phenomena at the nanoscale. My past research activities include electron and spin transport in molecular nanostructures, in particular in carbon nanotube and single-molecule magnet quantum dots. At present, I am particularly interested in investigating coherent manipulation of spins in semiconductor nano-devices for application in quantum information processing.

Interesting fact

Just got an Epiphone Dot, looking for people to play music with!
