Diamond quantum sensing

Presented by Victor Acosta, UNM CHTM

The nitrogen-vacancy color center in diamond is an attractive candidate for solid-state quantum sensing and imaging. I will discuss ongoing experiments in our labs at CHTM that explore several applications of diamond quantum sensing. These include microfluidic nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy [1] and magnetic microscopy of malarial hemozoin nanocrystals [2].
