Soon joining Quobly!

Hola!

I am a physics researcher specializing in semiconductor spin qubits, soon joining the French startup Quobly. My scientific interests span two-dimensional materials, topological physics, and quantum computing in solid-state devices. I focus on numerically simulating quantum systems to explore their spin and electronic properties.

Most recently, I worked as a Postdoctoral Researcher at CEA Grenoble under the supervision of Yann-Michel Niquet. Over 4.5 years, we collaborated on the theoretical and numerical modeling of spin qubits, particularly in holes in germanium and silicon. Our work included highly detailed, realistic simulations of these devices, as well as collaborations with experimental groups in Grenoble and Delft.

I earned my Ph.D. at Universidad de Chile in Santiago, under the supervision of Professor Luis Foa Torres. My research focused on time-periodic driven quantum systems (Floquet systems), integrating them with topological physics and quantum transport.

This is my personal webpage. Here, I occasionally blog about physics, coding, reflections on my work, and other topics that catch my interest. Posts will be in Spanish, English, and French.
