Abstract Scope |
Quantum Information Science (QIS) offers many opportunities in terms of computations and sensing. Point defects have emerged as powerful platforms for QIS with important "quantum defects" such as the NV center, or divacancy in diamond. Though these quantum defects have enabled the fundamental studies and engineering of some quantum technologies, they are not yet optimal for many applications. Thus, it is imperative to systematically investigate promising quantum defects that have optimal electronic and optical properties for a specific applications. I will report on our recent efforts to search for such an optimal quantum defect using high-throughput computing in two important material systems: silicon and 2D materials such as WS2. |
