Successful Helium Recovery System Integration with Our 7T Magnets!

We are excited to announce that our lab has successfully connected our 7T magnets to Northwestern’s helium recovery system, marking a major leap forward in sustainability and efficiency. Guided by expert recommendations and inspired by successful implementations at Yale and Northwestern, we’ve designed a streamlined apparatus that eliminates the need for bulky components, ensuring smooth […]

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 […]
