Nitrogen-Vacancy Centers in Diamond for Quantum Sensing
An overview of how nitrogen-vacancy defects in diamond act as room-temperature quantum sensors. Covers the underlying spin physics, how Optically Detected Magnetic Resonance reads out that spin state, and the fabrication hurdles standing between lab demos and deployable magnetometers.
Proposed Self-Limiting 2D hBN Growth via MOCVD
A proposed reactor design and growth recipe for directly synthesizing wafer-scale 2D hexagonal boron nitride, aimed at producing self-limiting monolayers with built-in single-photon emitters — sidestepping the scalability limits of exfoliation and traditional CVD.
