Funded Activity Summary

National Facility for Quantum Diamond. Quantum technology is set to play a significant role in the next generation of sensors, computers and communication systems. Diamond is a critical part of this technology revolution as it allows for room temperature quantum-based applications. This projects aims to establish a world leading facility to engineer quantum-grade diamond for precision sensing, secure communications and desktop quantum computing applications. Direct outcomes from the facility include: ultrasensitive magnetometers for magnetoencephalography, atomic microscopes for biomolecular imaging and novel sensing probes to interface with biology. The facility will seed the emerging diamond quantum industry in Australia and train the next generation of quantum engineers.
