About Lloyd
Lloyd Hollenberg is the Thomas Baker Professor of Physical Biosciences in the School of Physics, Faculty of Science at the University of Melbourne. He completed his Bachelor of Science in 1984 and PhD in theoretical particle physics in 1989 at the University of Melbourne. After his PhD, he held a JSPS Fellowship at the KEK accelerator laboratory in Tsukuba, Japan, followed by postdoctoral research fellowships at the University of Adelaide from 1990 to 1992 and at the University of Melbourne from 1993 to 1994. He then served as a senior research fellow at RMIT University from 1995 to 1998. In 1999, Hollenberg joined the University of Melbourne as a lecturer, was promoted to professor in 2006, and appointed to the inaugural Thomas Baker Chair in Physical Biosciences in 2014. He has held ARC Australian Professorial Fellowship from 2006 to 2011 and ARC Laureate Fellowship from 2013 to 2018. Currently, he is Deputy Director of the ARC Centre of Excellence for Quantum Computation and Communication Technology, Director of the IBM Quantum Hub at the University of Melbourne, and leader of the Quantum Science and Technology Group within the Theoretical Condensed Matter Physics research area.
Hollenberg's research specializes in theoretical quantum computing and quantum information science, with key contributions to silicon quantum electronics, quantum sensing using nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond and spin qubits in semiconductors, and quantum error correction. He has published over 250 papers in leading journals such as Nature, Nature Physics, Nature Nanotechnology, and Physical Review Letters. Notable publications include 'The nitrogen-vacancy colour centre in diamond' (Physics Reports, 2013), 'Silicon quantum electronics' (Reviews of Modern Physics, 2013), 'Electric-field sensing using single diamond spins' (Nature Physics, 2011), and 'A single-atom transistor' (Nature Nanotechnology, 2012). His work has provided the physical-quantum information basis for full-scale silicon quantum computers, set world records for quantum entanglement on IBM devices, and advanced quantum technologies bridging nano-bio interfaces. Hollenberg received the Fellow of the Australian Academy of Science in 2018, Royal Society of Victoria Medal in 2016, Victoria Prize for Science and Innovation in 2013, Eureka Prize for Excellence in Interdisciplinary Research in 2013, and Walter Boas Medal in 2012. He has served on the Australian Research Council College of Experts and chaired its Physics, Chemistry and Geosciences panel in 2008.
