Dr Philipp Reineck
Vice Chancellor's Senior Research Fellow, RMIT University, Australia

Philipp is a Vice Chancellor's Senior Research Fellow at RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia. He graduated in Physics from the University of Munich (LMU), received his PhD in Materials Engineering from Monash University in 2014, and was awarded an Australian Research Council DECRA Fellowship in 2019. His research interests span many areas including fluorescent nanomaterials, plasmonics, nanoparticle chemistry and self-assembly, nano-photonics, and bioimaging and sensing. His current focus is the development of fluorescent nanomaterials - particularly nanodiamonds - for imaging and sensing applications.

Alessandro Mameli
PhD Student, RMIT University, Australia

Alessandro is working towards creating better fluorescent nanodiamonds for quantum sensing applications. He aims to use co-doping to control the fluorescence properties of nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond.

Priya Singh
PhD Student, RMIT University, Australia

Priya’s project focuses on the fabrication and characterization of new fluorescent defects in wide-bandgap materials like boron nitride and diamond for nanoscale quantum sensing applications.

Daniel Tibben
PhD Student, RMIT University, Australia

Daniel works on the fabrication and characterization of thin-film optical cavities for enhancing photochemical upconversion, i.e. to convert red light to blue light. Daniel Gomez is Daniel's main supervisor.

Roy Styles
PhD Student, RMIT University, Australia

Roy’s project focuses on understanding the properties of fluorescent nanodiamonds and how their fluorescence can be used to precisely and quickly measure voltages at the nanoscale.

Katherine Chea
PhD Student, RMIT University, Australia

Katherine aims to understand how nanoparticles of different sizes and shapes like nanodiamonds can form highly regular crystal structures in suspension. Gary Bryant is Katherine’s main supervisor.

Mitchell De Vries PhD Student, RMIT University, Australia

Mitchell is exploring new fluorescent defects in the near-infrared spectral region in silicon carbide nanoparticles. He focuses on the spectral region between 1000 and 1350 nm, where biological tissue shows low light absorption and scattering.

Giannis Thalassinos
PhD Student, RMIT University, Australia

Giannis project aims to understand the origins of fluorescence in detonation nanodiamonds. He’s currently focusing on characterizing the fluorescence properties of hydrogenated detonation nanodiamonds.
