Andy received his PhD from the Australian National University in 2001 on the topic of subharmonic resonances in NV diamond. He has performed post-doctoral work at the Open University, UK, studying electromagnetically induced transparency in laser-cooled rubidium from both experimental and theoretical view points. He returned to Australia in 2002 to take up a Senior Research Associate position at the UNSW node of the Centre for Quantum Computer Technology. Here he began concentrating exclusively on theory, and sought to combine his knowledge of quantum optics with the new potential of solid-state quantum computing. During this time he developed new techniques for electronic transport (CTAP - coherent tunneling adiabatic passage) which now form the basis for a scalable architecture for a phosphorus in silicon quantum computer, and extended the field of single-electronic devices. He came to the University of Melbourne in 2004 to work directly with A/Prof Lloyd Hollenberg. In addition to his phosphorus in silicon work, since arriving in Melbourne he has returned to diamond studies, and was involved in the original single photon source development, and more recently (with Hollenberg) developed a new condensed matter analogue system ideally suited for NV diamond, dubbed 'solid light'. He was appointed Senior Lecturer at the University of Melbourne in 2007 and was a JSPS invitation fellow in 2006. A list of Andy's latest arXiv.org postings can be found here:
