PhD scholarship in Quantum Imaging and Sensing with Single Photon Emitters

This scholarship will explore the advantage of photon correlation microscopy for sensing in practical biological systems. The student will develop new approaches, which will be tested by our experimental colleagues. This work will also involve collaboration with other universities in Australia and abroad.

Theory and modelling pertaining to quantum sensing and imaging using single photon emitters, such as the nitrogen-vacancy colour centre in diamond
