Dr Rama Koteswara Rao Kamineni is an experimental physicist with extensive research experience in electron and nuclear magnetic resonance. His current research interests are focused on developing room-temperature quantum information processors and sensors using electron and nuclear spins in solid-state materials. Prior to joining Krea University, he worked at the Physics Department, Bennett University, Greater Noida for over 4 years in the roles of Assistant Professor and Associate Professor. During this period, he taught various courses and received funding from DST-SERB to work on quantum information processing using defect spins in wide bandgap semiconductors.

Dr Kamineni completed his PhD from the Physics Department at the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore in 2014. His PhD work focused on quantum information processing using nuclear magnetic resonance. He then spent 2.5 years at TU Dortmund, Germany, conducting post-doctoral research on quantum information processing using Nitrogen-Vacancy (NV) centres in diamond. Subsequently, he spent a year at the City College of New York, USA as a Post-Doctoral Fellow, working on hyperpolarisation of nuclear spins using NV centres in diamond. He then moved back to Germany, where he worked on developing quantum memories based on nuclear spins of NV centers in diamond for a year.
