Materials Exploration of Optically Active Quantum Spin Defects in Colloidal Nanocrystals

Research in the lab focuses on the synthesis, characterization, and engineering of optically active quantum spin defects in colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals. By combining bottom-up chemical synthesis with advanced optical spectroscopy and spin-based measurements, the lab aims to understand and control spin–photon interactions at the nanoscale. This materials-driven approach seeks to establish scalable, tunable quantum platforms for applications in quantum sensing, communication, and information processing.
