“The World's Smallest Sensor: A Flaw in a Diamond” (Prof. Dr. Dominik Bucher)

Date: Jul 24, 2025
Time: 07:15 PM - 08:15 PM (Local Time Germany)
Speaker: Prof. Dr. Dominik Bucher
TUM School of Natural Sciences
Location: Deutsches Museum Museumsinsel 1 80538 München
Host: MCQST and Faculty of Physics at the LMU München

Celebrating the 2025 International Year of Quantum Science and Technology, we are thrilled to partner with Faculty of Physics at the LMU München in co-organizing a captivating series of public talks. Join us on an enlightening journey, exploring the rich history of quantum theory, its foundational postulates, and the exciting frontiers of current research.

Sensors are an essential part of our daily lives, enabling countless technological advances. In my talk, I would like to introduce the world's smallest sensor, which happens to be a defect in the structure of a diamond. This quantum system, the size of a single atom, has demonstrated an extraordinary ability to measure magnetic, electrical and temperature changes at unprecedented scales. I will give an overview of this cutting-edge topic and discuss its applications, including the analysis of new materials and improving the resolution of current magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for the study of single cells.

Die Veranstaltung ist offen für alle, die sich für das Thema interessieren, und findet in deutscher Sprache statt. Der Eintritt ist frei.

Wir freuen uns darauf, Sie bei der Veranstaltung begrüßen zu dürfen!
