Rate My Professor Grant van Riessen

Van Riessen has obtained funding from the Australian Research Council, serving as Chief Investigator on Linkage Infrastructure projects such as LE130100192 and LE200100174, and leading a Discovery Project valued at $890,000 for scalable fabrication of diamond quantum microprocessors in partnership with Quantum Brilliance. His contributions extend to nanofabrication for coherent X-ray applications and quantum information technology. Key publications include 'Effects of plasma treatment of wool on the uptake of sulfonated dyes with different hydrophobic properties' (2010), 'Hole-lifetime width: a comparison between theory and experiment' (2003), 'EIGER2 hybrid-photon-counting X-ray detectors for advanced synchrotron diffraction experiments' (2023), 'Diffraction imaging: The limits of partial coherence' (2012), 'Whole-cell phase contrast imaging at the nanoscale using Fresnel Coherent Diffractive Imaging Tomography' (2013), 'X-ray photoelectron emission microscopy and time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry analysis of ultrathin fluoropolymer coatings for stent applications' (2008), 'Direct and core-resonant double photoemission from Cu (001)' (2010), 'Characterization of the magnesium alloy AZ31 surface in the ionic liquid trihexyl (tetradecyl) phosphonium bis (trifluoromethanesulfonyl) amide' (2010), 'Nanoscale Fresnel coherent diffraction imaging tomography using ptychography' (2012), and 'Mapping biological composition through quantitative phase and absorption X-ray ptychography' (2014). He teaches courses such as Directed Learning in Quantum Technology (PHY5005), Honours in Physics A (PHY401A), Essentials of Quantum Information Science (PHY5001), and Physics Masters Thesis B (PHY5THB), and contributes to the Master of Quantum Information Technology. Van Riessen has hosted webinars on studying quantum information technology and participates in national networks like AINSE as La Trobe's representative.
