This Project Grant award, valued at $400,000, was provided by the National Science Foundation's Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program. The project utilizes quantum spin defects in diamond and hexagonal boron nitride to study non-equilibrium quantum dynamics and how quantum systems behave when pushed away from equilibrium. The insights gained will enable better prediction and understanding of complex quantum systems, and guide the design of improved quantum-based simulators and sensors. The project also involves extensive education and outreach activities, such as developing an advanced undergraduate quantum laboratory, hosting annual "Quantum Open House" events, and engaging secondary school students and teachers in the greater St. Louis area. The award is held by The Washington University, a prominent private research institution, and will be performed over a period of 3 years, from September 1, 2025 to August 31, 2028.
