The Federal Project Grant award for "QUANTUM SENSING AND SIMULATIONS WITH THREE-DIMENSIONAL ION CRYSTALS IN A PENNING TRAP" was issued by the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) under the Air Force Defense Research Sciences Program (CFDA 12.800). This $287,702 award to the University of Colorado, a public research university, will fund fundamental research and development over a 5-year period from February 2025 to February 2030. The University of Colorado will leverage its expertise in physics, materials science, and quantum engineering to investigate quantum sensing and simulation techniques using three-dimensional ion crystals in a Penning trap. The research aims to advance scientific understanding and enable potential defense and space applications related to areas such as quantum computing, high-speed flows, and advanced electronics. As a prominent recipient of past federal grants and contracts, the University of Colorado will deliver research outputs, data products, and educational programs through this award to support the AFRL's mission of maintaining technological superiority for the U.S. Air Force and Space Force.
