Connor’s research focuses on the development of quantum sensors based on nitrogen vacancy center defects in diamond for applications such as bulk vector magnetometry and wide-field magentic imaging. In particular, he pursues, in close collaboration with others in the group, the realization of techniques to improve NV-diamond magnetic sensitivity and robustness against material, environmental, and experimental imperfections. His graduate work has also included the development of NV-based characterization techniques to better inform the development of diamond material tailored to magnetic sensing applications.
A paper on Characterisation of CVD diamond with high concentrations of nitrogen for magnetic-field sensing applications has been published in Materials for Quantum Technology!
A paper on Decoherence of ensembles of nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond has been published in Physical Review B.
A paper on NV-Diamond Magnetic Microscopy using a Double Quantum 4-Ramsey Protocol has been posted on the arXiv.
