Quantum Diamond Sensors — Best of Both Worlds

The nitrogen–vacancy (NV) quantum defect in diamond is a leading modality for magnetic, electrical, temperature, and pressure sensing with high spatial resolution and wide field-of-view, operating under both ambient and extreme conditions. This quantum sensing technology has diverse applications across the physical and life sciences — from probing magnetic materials and electronic systems to biomedical diagnostics. I will provide an overview of quantum diamond sensors and their many applications.
