As we don't expect any snow storms this week, we will have the talk
by Francesco Casola (group Ron Walsworth), which had to be cancelled
two weeks ago. See details below. Please note that the ITAMP
seminars will now be held on Thursdays.
ITAMP Topical Lunch Discussion
Date: Thursday, February 18th
Time:
12:00-1:30 pm
Pizza will be served.
Location: B-106 @ Center for Astrophysics (60
Garden Street)
Directions: after entering the lobby of the CfA, turn
right to enter the hallway of the B building. In the
hallway, turn right again, and B-106 is there.
Speaker:
Francesco Casola (Harvard)
Title: Harnessing
one (electron spin) to measure them all
Abstract: In
recent years, the coherent manipulation and optical addressing
of a single electronic spin in nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers
in diamond has emerged as a potential non-perturbative tool to
obtain nanoscale spatial and quantitative local information of
condensed matter magnetism. In this talk I will present
fundamental concepts and review recent results of
space-resolved NV magnetometry in the study of novel spin
textures and collective spin dynamics of correlated electron
systems. Beyond magnetic sensing applications, I will finally
present ideas and outline challenges to observe coherent
interactions between NVs and fundamental excitation modes in
collinear ferromagnets.

Dear all,
Due to the closure of the cfa, we will postpone today's Itamp
seminar to another day.
Best,
Igor
