Sir Harrie Massey Colloquia Series: Professor Fedor Jelezko

Back to events

Spin qubits in diamond. Professor Fedor Jelezko Universität Ulm

Date(s)
February 19, 2025
Location
Larmor Lecture Theatre
Time
15:00 - 16:00

We are delighted to welcome Professor Fedor Jelezko to the school as part of our 2024-25 Sir Harrie Massey Colloquia Series.

Professor Jelezko will deliver a lecture titled 'Spin qubits in diamond.' An abstract and biography can be found below.

Abstract:

Optically active spin qubits in diamond have recently emerged as a candidate material for a range of quantum-based applications, including quantum information processing, quantum communication and quantum sensing. In this talk, we will show the realisation of a spin-based solid-state architecture for a scalable quantum register consisting of strongly dipolarly coupled electron spins assocoated with NV centers We will show that isotopic engineering of diamond allows the creation of regularly ordered arrays of nuclear spins, which can be explored as elements of quantum simulators.  Application of nanodiamonds for nanoscale NMR and hyperpolarisation enhanced MRI  will be discussed.

Biography:

Fedor JELEZKO is currently a director of the Institute of Quantum Optics at Ulm University, director of the Centre for Integrated Quantum Science and Technology and member of Heidelberg Academy of Sciences.

He studied in Minsk (Belarus) and received his Ph.D. in 1998. After finishing the habilitation in 2010 at Stuttgart University he was appointed as a professor of experimental physics in Ulm in 2011. His research interests are at the intersection of fundamental quantum science and quantum technologies. His research team is exploring applications of spin qubits in diamond  for information processing, communication, sensing, and imaging

Outside academia, he is involved in the development of quantum technologies based on spin qubits. Fedor Jelezko and his team could show that it is possible to create a hyperpolarization of nuclear spins in diamond or external molecules under ambient conditions. Such diamonds become visible in standard MRI machines and thus offer new perspectives for enhanced medical imaging. Having applied for a patent on this idea, Prof. Jelezko and his colleagues are now pursuing its exploitation by means of their start-up company NVision Imaging Technologies GmbH.
