Domenico Zito
Abstract This seminar addresses some of the most fundamental and severe challenges towards the implementation of monolithic quantum processors and reports innovative integrated quantum devices together with control and readout circuits as key enabling building-block solutions which have drawn the attention of the academic and industrial community world-wide.
Bio Domenico Zito received the M.Sc. degree in electronic engineering and the Ph.D. degree in information engineering from the University of Pisa, Italy, in 2000 and 2004, respectively. From 2005 he was an Assistant Professor of Electronics and the University of Pisa, Italy; from 2009, a Stokes Professor at University College Cork and Tyndall National Institute, Ireland; and, from 2016 a Professor in Electrical and Computer Engineering at Aarhus University, Denmark. Since 2023 he is a Professor at AGH University of Science and Technology, Krakow, Poland. He has authored 150+ papers in peer-reviewed international journals and conference proceedings, nine books and book chapters, and five patents. His research interests include all aspects (theory, modeling and simulation, design and test) of integrated devices, circuits and systems for emerging wireless communications, contactless sensing, imaging and quantum computing, to which has contributed with innovative building-blocks and pioneering system-on-a-chip implementations as foundations and openings of new today’s technologies and technology directions.
Among the recognitions, in 2005 he received the Mario Boella (VP Union Radio Science Institute) Prize for Research and Innovation in Wireless Technology in Europe (1st of the Top-3 Europe’s Innovators in Wireless Technology). He was the recipient of the Start-up Laboratory of the Year at Irish Laboratory Awards in 2014, and the IEEE Education Society Award for his Distinguished Contributions and Leadership in Engineering Education in 2015. He was also a recipient of three best paper awards at the IEEE conferences.
He has served as a TPC member of the European Solid-State Device/Circuits Conference (ESSXXRC), IEEE Ph.D. Research in Microelectronics and Electronics (PRIME), IEEE International Conference Electronics on Circuits and Systems (ICECS), TPC Chair of PRIME 2009, ICECS 2016, Guest and Associate Editor and Editor-in-Chief for the IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems I: Regular Papers.
He has served as a member and chair of panels and boards for several national and international bodies in Europe and North America. Since 2019 has led the EU project IQubits and since 2022 has served as Chair of the Quantum Chip Prototyping, Pilots and Engineering of the Quantum Coordination Board of the EU Quantum Flagship (a ten-year programme of the EU with €2B funding for the development of quantum technologies in Europe).
