This National Science Foundation (NSF) Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships (CFDA 47.084) Project Grant award of $274,786 to Femtosenselabs, LLC will fund the development of a robust technique to harness atomic defects and improve the performance of scanning magnetometer microscopes. The goal is to enable high-resolution imaging of novel magnetic materials with unprecedented sensitivity at the nanoscale level, which is critical for advancing the field of spintronics and creating faster, more energy-efficient computing devices. This SBIR Phase I project proposes a new technique for utilizing atomic defects in host crystals, such as diamond, as a platform for quantum sensing applications. The anticipated outcomes include breakthroughs in advanced microscopy techniques that can capture the magnetic footprint associated with electron spin, paving the way for developing novel magnetic materials for spintronics and pioneering new computing technologies.
