Dr Panagiotis Dimitrakis graduated the Physics Department of the University of Athens (BSc 1995, MSc 1998) and received his PhD degree in Nanoelectronics in 2006 from the National Technical University of Athens. Dr Dimitrakis has long experience in process design and electronic device fabrication for logic and memory applications. He has coordinated research projects for the development of memristive devices for neuromorphic and quantum computing and the development of super-and semiconducting qubits. He has coordinated or was PI of 6 national industrial project on GaN RF circuits on Si for 5G funded by GSRI. Currently he is the PI of a project funded by HFRI for the development of AI chips. Also, he is the PI of two Horizon Europe projects on chip fabrication facilities (INFRACHIP) and interfacing HPC with Quantum computers (NOUS). He has published more than 82 papers in international peer-reviewed journals (>2500 citations, h-index: 24) and several book chapters.
He is the editor of three books on electronic non-volatile memories. He has 14 invited talks and 60 papers in international conference proceeding volumes. He has organized 20 international conferences in Greece, Europe, Asia and USA. He is a Senior Member of IEEE, HiPEAC, Associate Editor in IEEE Nanotechnology Magazine (2020-2022) and served as guest editor in several Journal special issues. He is member of the governing board of European Institute SINANO and deputy director of the MSc Program “Quantum Computing and Quantum Technology”. He joined National Center for Scientific Research “Demokritos” in 2007 as Research Officer, elected as Senior Researcher in 2017 and from 2021 he elected Director of Research. Presently he is acting as head of the Institute of Quantum Computing & Quantum Technology at NCSR “D”. His research interests are focused on novel nanoelectronic devices, AI hardware accelerators, qubit and quantum sensing devices, quantum computing and quantum simulators.
