Biography
am an ARC DECRA Fellow working in the Precision Measurement Group in the Institute of Photonics and Advanced Sensing (School of Physics Sciences), working towards implementing a quantum memory within a hollow-core optical fibre. I obtained my PhD in Physics from the Australian National University in 2013, where I developed techniques to store and manipulate optical quantum information. In 2013 I moved to the University of Melbourne to work on the development of a cold atom electron/ion source, our goal being to create ultra-short ultra-bright bunches of electrons for single-shot diffraction imaging, as well as incredibly focused ion beams for sub-nanometer resolution fabrication. I was awarded a McKenzie Fellowship from the University of Melbourne from 2014-2016, which allowed me to investigate novel methods to improve the source performance.
