Abstract:
Quantum sensing is a mature quantum technology that can potentially offer sensors with sensitivities approaching the fundamental (Heisenberg) limit. They can be used to measure physical quantities with an unprecedented sensitivity as compared to their traditional counterparts. Nitrogen-vacancy defects in diamond are versatile quantum sensors that can measure magnetic fields, electric fields, temperature, and stress/strain at ambient conditions due to their unique quantum mechanical properties. By exploiting such features of diamond magnetometry, we can potentially create applications that can transform a multitude of industry verticals ranging from quality control to healthcare. My talk will highlight our efforts towards enabling industrial applications in electronics analysis, magnetic material analysis, and healthcare.
