‘Building Quantum Computers the Classical way: How The Semiconductor Industry Is Shaping The Quantum Race.’
Dr. Irene Fernández de Fuentes
Postdoctoral Researcher at QuTech
Dr. Irene Fernández de Fuentes is a Postdoctoral Researcher at QuTech, a research institute for quantum computing and quantum internet in the Netherlands. With a background in Physics, she completed her PhD at the University of New South Wales under the supervision of Prof. Andrea Morello, specialising in semiconductor spin qubits, particularly working with implanted donor atoms in silicon.
Her scientific interest lies in engineering nano-electronic devices that serve as testbeds for novel quantum phenomena, with a particular interest in many-body dynamics. As part of her scientific activities, Irene co-founded Quantum Women, a professional network of current and emerging women in Quantum technology and related fields, with a clear mission: to help every female in the field achieve their full professional potential.
At QuTech, we aim to develop scalable prototypes of a quantum computer and an inherently safe quantum internet, based on the fundamental laws of quantum mechanics. To achieve these ambitious goals, we bring together scientists, engineers and industry in an inspiring environment. We are jointly creating the quantum future, because we believe that quantum technology can be a game changer in many social and economic sectors.
