Join the Undergrad Women in Physics for another Professors and Pastries event with guest Nathalie de Leon of Princeton University!
"The de Leon group is focused on building quantum hardware with color centers in wide bandgap materials, such as NV centers in diamond. These color centers act as artificial atoms in the solid state, and can have remarkable optical and spin properties.
"We aim to explore fundamental device physics, materials engineering, and nanophotonics to gain full control over color centers to build them into scalable quantum devices, with the large-scale technological goals of realizing quantum networks and nanoscale sensors. Complementarily, we will search for new color centers for applications in quantum information processing and quantum sensing. In the near term, this toolkit will enable the exploration of fundamental quantum optics, magnetic interactions, and many body physics.
"Our lab is highly interdisciplinary, spanning optics and photonics, surface science and materials engineering, atomic and molecular spectroscopy, nanofabrication, and cryogenics."
