Department(s)/lab(s): Quantum Nanoscience | Otte Lab @ TU Delft
Summary:

Otte's group pioneered electron-spin-resonance scanning tunneling microscopy (ESR-STM), positioning individual atoms one-by-one with a low-temperature STM tip and using all-electrical RF driving to coherently control and single-shot read out individual electron and nuclear spins (e.g., single 49Ti nuclei) with sub-neV energy resolution and atomic spatial resolution. Where NV-ensemble sensing reaches pT/sqrt(Hz) at the nanoscale, Otte's ESR-STM instead reaches the ultimate single-atom limit of magnetic sensing and quantum control, and the lab is developing a next-generation 15 T / 20 mK STM to push coherence times and energy resolution further.
