The quantum diamond at the center of the magnetic microscope contains nitrogen vacancy centers, which fluoresce red light when excited by a green laser and can be used to make high-speed, high-resolution images of magnetic fields.

Advanced Quantum Technologies

The Advanced Quantum Technologies Group focuses on accelerating quantum computing and quantum sensing using ion-based and solid-state platforms. Our core research areas include fundamental quantum science to drive next-generation advances; quantum devices such as ion-based computing testbeds, precision clocks, magnetometers, and other sensors; and integrated quantum systems, including magnetic-assisted navigation and quantum microscopy for microelectronics diagnostics.
