Danielle Holmes is a Postdoctoral Researcher in the School of Electrical Engineering and Telecommunications, in the Faculty of Engineering at UNSW Sydney. She is pursuing the realisation of scalable quantum computers through ion implanted donor spin qubits in silicon, with a focus on high nuclear spin qubits, deterministic implantation using single ion detectors and the isotopic enrichment of silicon to provide a spin-free environment for donor qubits. During her PhD she researched donor activation and isotopic enrichment of silicon via ion implantation for quantum computing and was awarded best PhD completion talk in the School of Physics, University of Melbourne. Danielle received her MSci and BA from the University of Cambridge in Physical Natural Sciences.
