Description: Observing and controlling solid state quantum systems is an area of intense research in quantum science today. Such systems offer the natural advantage of being bound into a solid device, eliminating the need for laser cooling and trapping of atoms in free space. These solid state "atoms" can interface directly with photonic channels designed to efficiently couple into larger networks of interacting quantum systems. With all of the tools of semiconductor fabrication technology available, the idea of scalable, chip-based quantum networks is a tantalizing prospect.
Notes: Keywords: cavity quantum electrodynamics, magnetometry, nanoscale sensor, Nitrogen vacancy center, photonic crystals, photonics.
