Title: Point Defects in Crystals: Trapped Atoms for Quantum Networks and Sensing
Abstract:
Point defects in crystals are the solid-state analog to trapped ions. Thus these “quantum defects”, which can be integrated into solid-state devices, have gained interest as quantum sensors and qubit candidates for scalable quantum networks. In this talk, I will introduce some of the basic quantum defect properties desirable for quantum technologies. I will then focus on my own group’s work advancing hybrid defect-photonics platforms for quantum network applications.
