Young Scientist Prize in Semiconductor Physics
The Prize Selection Committee for the 2008 IUPAP Young Scientist Prize
in Semiconductor Physics (YSP-SP) is pleased to announce Prof. Lieven
Vandersypen of the Kavli Institute for Nanoscience, Delft University of
Technology, as the first and sole winner of the 2008 IUPAP YSP-SP, for
"his contributions to the read-out and coherent control of individual
electron spins in semiconductor quantum dots, with possible application
to quantum computing". The Prize Committee congratulates Prof.
Vandersypen on this achievement. The Prize will be awarded at the
ICPS2008 Conference.
