New ICFOnians
New researchers and a new member of the administration area joined ICFO.
January 09, 2013
Three postdoctoral researchers, Dr. Tomasz Sowinski, Dr. Tania Lasanta, and Dr. Antoine Reserbat-Plantey; one PhD student, Mr. Kutlu Kutluer; one student, Mr. Ivan Iakoupov; and one member of Administration, Ms. Elen García; have joined ICFO.
Dr. Tomasz Sowinski has joined the QOT group led by ICREA Prof. Maciej Lewenstein to work on ultracold atomic, ionic and molecular gases, and quantum simulators. Tomek has visited ICFO several times in the last two years, and already has a record of collaborations and publications with the QOT group.
Dr. Tania Lasanta obtained her PhD in Chemistry on June 15th 2012 at the University of La Rioja, where her research was focused on supramolecular heterometallic materials with optical, mechanocromic and sensing properties. In November 15th, she joined the Solution Processed Nanophotonics group led by Nest Fellow, Prof. Gerasimos Konstantatos, to develop and perform synthesis of colloidal semiconductor, nanocrystals and quantum dots for renewable energy applications and optoelectronics.
Dr. Antoine Reserbat-Plantey received his PhD from the University of Grenoble. Antoine will work at ICFO as a Postdoctoral researcher in the groups led by Professors Frank Koppens and Adrian Bachtold on optomechanics experiments. He will study mechanical vibrations of graphene resonators coupled to dipole emitters.
Mr. Kutlu Kutluer holds a BSc in Physics and a MSc in micro and nanotechnology from the Middle East Technical University (METU) in Ankara, Turkey. He joins ICFO as PhD student in the group led by ICREA Prof. Hugues de Riedmatten. He will work on the implementation of solid state quantum memories for single photons using rare-earth doped crystals.
Mr. Ivan Iakoupov is a Masters student visiting the Theoretical quantum-nano photonics group led by Prof. Darrick Chang, from the theoretical quantum optics group led by Prof. Anders Sorensen at the Niels Bohr Institute in Copenhagen, Denmark. Ivan is working on protocols for two-photon quantum gates for quantum computing using optical nonlinearities in atomic ensembles. He will also be developing exact analytical techniques for few-photon propagation in ensembles.
Ms. Elen García joins ICFO’s Project Management Unit and will be responsible for the administrative management and follow-up of FP7 projects coordinated by ICFO.
