Quantum diamond microscope for mapping magnetic fields


Introduction

Tremendous research activity worldwide has focused on attempting to harness the exotic properties of quantum physics for new applications in metrology, computation, and communications - a push to develop “engineered quantum systems”. Colour centres in diamond such as nitrogen-vacancy centres (NV centres) could provide a platform for precision magnetometry allowing for nanoscale magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of individual complex molecules. In this talk, I will give an overview of our research towards the development of an imaging tool for mapping neuronal signals from mammalian brain cells. In addition, I will describe our effort towards the development of single-photon sources.
