Another milestone for the lab! On 30 September, we performed our first widefield imaging of NV centres in diamond and measured an optically detected magnetic resonance (ODMR) signal from a selected region. An exciting step forward for our camera-based quantum-sensing experiments! 💎📷
A big welcome to Qian Ling and Zak who dropped by the lab from Cambridge! Qian Ling (from the QOMS group at Cavendish Laboratory) gave an awesome talk on her scanning NV microscopy research, and Zak (from QEG) joined the tour to check out our setup. Thanks for dropping by! Great science chats, great company! ☕️✨
A Friday milestone for the lab! On 4 September, we observed our first optically detected magnetic resonance (ODMR) signal from an NV centre in diamond. As the applied magnetic field increased, the resonance peaks split further apart—an exciting first step for our diamond quantum-sensing work! 💎✨
A warm welcome to Priyanshu Bhattacharya, who joined QSE Lab as a Research Engineer on 25 August! A recent graduate of the University of Maryland, he will build on his undergraduate research on NV centres in diamond as part of our quantum-sensing efforts. 💎✨
Dayne Dai and Huaizheng Ye join as PhD students supported by NUS Research Scholarships, leading our NV-in-diamond and quantum Brillouin efforts, respectively. Grace Lee, Yong Le Lee, Surya Nayar, Qi Yuan Yu, Kristoffer Videl Wijono, Aliyev, Khadijah and Vivekan will contribute across the lab’s research through year-long undergraduate projects.
We welcome enquiries from researchers and students interested in quantum sensing, quantum materials and hybrid spin–phonon systems.
Experiment and theory show how conditioning on the absence of scattered photons can enhance optomechanical laser cooling.
We measured Brillouin–Mandelstam scattering in telecommunications fibre deep in the cryogenic regime.
Our diamond-magnetometry study of antiferromagnetic textures was highlighted by science outlets and research magazines.
Diamond quantum magnetometry directly resolves monopolar, dipolar and quadrupolar charge distributions in haematite.
