Plenary
In many countries around the world there are emerging programs in a new field of technology that employs quantum mechanical principles in engineered devices. Remarkably, much of the expertise associated with the traditional nuclear microprobe technology and applications can find applications in the new field. Of crucial importance is the capability to engineer single atoms in silicon,...

Plenary
The ultimate goal of nanotechnology engineering in solids is the ability to prepare single atoms as full functional quantum devices in a scalable manner. Quantum effects enable to build extremely powerful sensors and still let the promise of a quantum computer. Devices based on defects in diamond play an increasing role in these fields, taking advantage of some recent technological...
