Description: Engineering and readout of electron and nuclear spin qubits hosted in silicon and diamond nanostructures for use as quantum sensors, quantum memories, and building blocks of quantum computers, including single-cell-scale magnetic resonance sensing.
Morton directs UCL's Quantum Science and Technology Institute and is Deputy Director of the Q-BIOMED hub. His group manipulates electron and nuclear spins in nanoscale materials (silicon donors, diamond defects) to build quantum sensors, quantum memories, and quantum computing hardware, and within Q-BIOMED is pursuing magnetic-resonance quantum sensing at the single-cell level. He is also a co-founder of the quantum computing spinouts Quantum Motion and Phasecraft.
