Title: Spin qubits in diamond
Speaker: Prof. Fedor Jelezko (Institute of Quantum Optics, Ulm University, Germany)

Abstract: 

Optically active spin qubits in diamond have recently emerged as a candidate material for a range of quantum-based applications, including quantum information processing, quantum communication and quantum sensing. In this talk, we will show the realisation of a spin-based solid-state architecture for a scalable quantum register consisting of strongly dipolarly coupled electron spins assocoated with NV centers We will show that isotopic engineering of diamond allows the creation of regularly ordered arrays of nuclear spins, which can be explored as elements of quantum simulators.  Application of nanodiamonds for nanoscale NMR and hyperpolarisation enhanced MRI  will be discussed.
