I dedicate my time to both cutting-edge quantum hardware R&D and meaningful cultural engagement.
On the technical front (Research), I specialize in scaling quantum systems, from single-atom devices to macroscopic solid-state platforms. My current focus is on atomically fabricated dopants in ultrapure silicon. A key recent contribution was the development of 25-qubit flip-chip integrated quantum processors for the OpenSuperQ project—work the 2023 EU Quantum Technologies Flagship review cited as a point of European technical leadership (See this). This expertise led me to co-found a Swedish startup dedicated to high-density enabling hardware for quantum platforms.
In parallel, I maintain a steady commitment to Indonesian outreach, specifically by popularizing quantum physics for young and adult readers. I have translated two works with Kepustakaan Populer Gramedia (Outreach) and aim to eventually publish an original popular science book in Indonesian someday.
Outside of work, I recharge by reading and drinking coffee, often pondering the nature of reality, and sometimes, I confess, falling back into the weeds of scalable readout and control for 1000Q systems and beyond.
