About Jarryd
Associate Professor Jarryd Pla is an Associate Professor at UNSW Sydney, an ARC Future Fellow, and a former recipient of the Bragg Gold Medal. He is an electrical engineer and experimental physicist whose research focuses on quantum information processing and the development of emerging quantum technologies.
He played a key role in demonstrating the first quantum bits (qubits) based on the electron and nucleus of a single dopant atom embedded within a silicon chip, a landmark achievement that helped establish silicon as a promising platform for quantum computing.
His current research interests span spin-based quantum computation, superconducting quantum circuits (in particular quantum-noise-limited microwave amplifiers) and hybrid quantum technologies. His work aims to develop the technologies needed to scale quantum computers while also advancing capabilities in quantum sensing and spectroscopy.
