Lieven Vandersypen

Bio

Prof. dr. ir. Lieven Vandersypen is a pioneer in semiconductor spin qubits. His group was the first to control a single electron spin in a quantum dot, the first to run quantum algorithms on spin qubits in quantum dots, holds the record of the largest spin qubit register in quantum dots and pioneered on-chip quantum links based on electron shuttling. His work led to more than 175 publications, which have been cited more than 40,000 times.
Vandersypen received the Spinoza prize (the highest scientific honour in the Netherlands), the Nicholas Kurti European Science Prize, the IUPAP prize for Semiconductor Physics, and is a member of the Dutch Royal Academy of Arts and Science as well as of the Royal Holland Society of Sciences and Humanities. He received ERC Starting, Synergy and Advanced grants. He is Antonie van Leeuwenhoek professor at the Kavli Institute of Nanoscience at Delft University of Technology, and is co-founder and current scientific director of QuTech.
