Ultraviolet laser pulses engineer diamond defects selectively, leaving quantum qubits intact
When we think about a diamond, we often think about a material whose value comes from its perfection.

When we think about a diamond, we often think about a material whose value comes from its perfection. In my research, however, I am interested in something almost opposite: the tiny imperfections inside diamonds. These atomic-scale defects can give diamonds new optical and electronic properties, and some of them can serve as quantum systems. The challenge is learning how to control these defects without disturbing the others.
