Interface-induced decoherence is still a significant challenge for many quantum technologies. The nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center in diamond is a prominent candidate for quantum computing and quantum network. It is also a powerful tool to detect electromagnetic fields, temperature, and pressure, and can be employed to study the origin of the decoherence. I'm interested in shallow NV combined with a scanning probe microscope, which provides nm-scale spatial resolution and gives important insights into condensed matter phenomena and interface-induced decoherence of quantum systems.
