Grant Activity:
Quantum-based NMR spectrometer: the final frontier for field deployable chemical sensors
Purpose:
This project aims to use cutting edge diamond-based quantum sensors to develop a robust, compact and sensitive nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrometer for trace chemical detection analysis. NMR is the gold standard of chemical characterisation and quantification. Yet this powerful and ubiquitous technique is not currently available to field operators needing to characterise and quantify samples that are potentially highly toxic or explosive. Our proposed quantum-based sensing technology would provide Defence with enhanced situational awareness and could dramatically reduce exposure of military personnel to chemical/explosive threats while providing high-fidelity data from which truly informed tactical decisions can be made.
