Quantum sensing with 2D materials
Abstract
Two dimensional materials (2D) are the most prominent candidates for a new generation of devices in the fields of nanophotonics and nanoelectronics. This proposal will address their use as quantum probes for environmental fluctuations including gas, additive molecules, bio-toxins, chemicals and temperatures. In particular, we use defects in mono and multilayered hexagonal boron nitride to show their applicability as quantum sensors. The intended project outcomes are a new platform for quantum technologies and sensing as well as fundamental advances in present understanding of defects in 2D materials.
