Cole is a Professor at RMIT University[1] where he leads study of theoretical condensed-matter physics, superconducting devices, charge transport in nanoscale devices, quantum metrology and decoherence theory. He is the Group Leader of RMIT's Theoretical Chemical and Quantum Physics Research Group.

Expertise

Quantum circuit theory, superconducting devices based on the Josephson effect, spin physics, decoherence, measurement and entanglement theory, quantum information and quantum computing.

Career

Cole completed a Bachelor of Applied Physics and Communication Engineering (Hons) from RMIT University in 2002 and a PhD University of Melbourne in 2006 (Controllable few-state quantum systems for information processing).

Cole was a postdoctoral researcher within the Centre for Quantum Computing Technology, University of Melbourne from 2006 to 2007, studying solid-state quantum computing.[2]

Cole was postdoctoral researcher (initially as an Alexander von Humboldt Fellow) at Karlsruhe University 2007-11, studying qubit characterisation, superconducting qubits and defects in Josephson junctions.

Cole returned to RMIT University in Feb. 2011 as a Vice-Chancellor's Senior Research Fellow, and was made a full Professor in Jan 2018.

Cole is a Chief Investigator within the ARC Centre of Excellence in Future Low-Energy Electronics Technologies (FLEET), investigating the influence of dissipation and decoherence on electronic transport in nanostructures, and its role in electronic devices based on topologically protected conduction channels.[3]

Cole is a Chief Investigator within the ARC Centre of Excellence for Exciton Science,[4] applying expertise in electron transport, spin physics and decoherence theory to understanding the control and manipulation of excitons to create more-efficient solar cells.[5]

Cole is a founding partner at h-bar, a consultancy dedicated to quantum information and quantum technology.[6]

Publications, Writings

Cole has authored over 80 peer-reviewed publications, has been cited over 2300 times and has an h-index of 26. He holds five patents.

Cole has written general-audience articles on Australia quantum research,[7] low-energy electronics (in The Conversation[8]), and has been interviewed on metric units[9] and ICT energy use.[10]

gollark: It also probably won't horribly overheat much.
gollark: The osmarks.tk™ solar-orbital broadcast station beams osmarks.tk™ and also 45000Ec/s around the system, and it can serve 4 million requests per second with no* latency!
gollark: Orbit parameters, random other information about the orbital body and such.
gollark: Sorry, thermal information thingy.
gollark: Well, the thermal overlay I have open for one thing.
