Basic research in quantum imaging and defect state enabled spintronics
Abstract
Research aimed at advancing foundational theory and experiments to utilize quantum resources such as superposition and entanglement for beyond-classical capabilities in imaging that could ultimately enable sub-wavelength imaging, single-photon and low-power illumination, and improved covert detection using entanglement, and pursuing breakthroughs demonstrating that defect states contribute to long-range order in wide band-gap semiconductor systems, which could ultimately be exploited to develop magnetic semiconductors as the basis for the long-sought-after new spin-based electronics technology. This research effort is an enhancement of the activities conducted under physics and emerges as a new research area starting FY12.
