Exciting News!! Our lab has returned to full operation!

Our lab is back in action with significant developments to share. We are thrilled to announce that our magnets have been brought up back to field at 7 Tesla! In addition, we are pleased to share that, along with reconstructing our systems, DNP is back up and running! Stay tuned for updates on innovative projects […]

JPCL’s Latest Cover Feature – Multi-Electron Spin Cluster Enabled Dynamic Nuclear Polarization With Sulfonated BDPA

The Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters (JPCL) has officially approved and published a supplementary cover that unveils a remarkable advancement in Dynamic Nuclear Polarization (DNP). The supplementary cover, now available online, highlights a pivotal study conducted on a water-soluble sulfonated BDPA (SA-BDPA) with significant implications for the future of DNP technology. Cover art depicts a single […]

Hot off the Press!! Back-to-back publications in JACS by the collaborative effort of Han, Ramanathan, Shimon, Takahashi, Equbal at 3.4 and 7 Tesla, and by Kaminker group at 14 Tesla!

Check our most recent publication on P1 center diamonds titled ” P1 Center Electron Spin Clusters Are Prevalent in Type 1b Diamonds.” Complimented with Ilia Kaminker’s most recent paper published in JACS titled “Nitrogen Substituents Aggregation and Clustering in Diamonds as Revealed by High-Field Electron Paramagnetic Resonance.” These papers feature the surprising discovery in two back-to-back […]

Stay tuned for back-to-back publication in JACS by the collaborative effort of Han, Ramanathan, Shimon, Takahashi, Equbal at 3.4 and 7 Tesla, and by Kaminker group at 14 T!

These papers feature the surprising discovery in two back-to-back studies that a large fraction of nitrogen (P1) defects in type 1b diamond, commonly used for ensemble quantum sensing, form exchange-coupled clusters (indicated as 6 connected blue spheres). These cluster evaded the attention of the community until now as it is hardly visible to electron paramagnetic […]

Han Lab has moved into Northwestern University!

As of October 2nd, 2023 the Han Lab has officially moved into Northwestern University. Our current lab space is in Silvermann B530, Tech J317, and in IMSERC in Tech B176. We’re looking forward to getting settled and continuing our research here at NU!
