Welcome to Sean Walker who starts as a new MSc student this Fall. Sean graduated from the University of Manitoba and holds an NSERC graduate scholarship.

Congratulations to Greg Holloway who won an IQC Achievement Award this term for his body of work on nanowire transport experiments!

Also, farewell to Mustafa Muhammad who completed his postdoctoral appointment this September.

Finally, an article appeared today on our University homepage:

Congrats to Greg Holloway and Kyle Willick on being awarded Ontario Graduate Scholarships this year!

We have three new publications in 2013 on electronic transport studies in InAs and InAs-InAlAs core-shell nanowires!

Kyle Willick and Stéphane Labruyere have both joined the group as MSc students. Kyle has also been awarded a WIN NanoFellowship. Welcome to both, and congrats Kyle!

APS Viewpoint article by Xuedong Hu highlights recent work by our group that was published in Physical Review Letters. The Viewpoint article describes the electron spin resonance work lead by Mike Zhang that exploits the anisotropic hyperfine interaction to gain efficient and universal quantum control of a pair of nuclear spins indirectly, by irradiating the electron spin they are both coupled to.

Greg Holloway is awarded a WIN Nanofellowship for his research proposal on manipulating spins in quantum dots. Congratulations Greg!

Kaveh Gharavi, Jeremy Kroeker, and Greg Holloway join the group as graduate students. Welcome!

See the People page for short biographical information on the group members.

Mustafa Muhammad joins the group as a postdoctoral fellow. Welcome Mustafa!

Welcome to the new home of the Coherent Spintronics Group at the Institute for Quantum Computing, University of Waterloo.
