- Abstract summary: Magnetic resonance imaging of spin systems combines scientific applications in medicine, chemistry and physics.
We investigate the pixel-wise coherent quantum dynamics of spins consisting of a 40 by 40 micron sized region of interest implanted with nitrogen vacancy centers (NV)
We show the effect of the $mathrmCrTe$ van der Waals magnet on the coherence of the NV sensor layer and measure a 70 times increase in the maximum frequency of the quantum oscillation.

- Abstract: Magnetic resonance imaging of spin systems combines scientific applications
in medicine, chemistry and physics. Here, we investigate the pixel-wise
coherent quantum dynamics of spins consisting of a 40 by 40 micron sized region
of interest implanted with nitrogen vacancy centers (NV) coupled to a
nano-magnetic flake of $\mathrm{CrTe_2}$. $\mathrm{CrTe_2}$ is an in-plane van
der Waals ferromagnet, which we can probe quantitatively by the NV electron's
spin signal even at room temperature. First, we combine the nano-scale sample
shapes measured by atomic force microscope with the magnetic resonance imaging
data. We then map out the coherent dynamics of the colour centers coupled to
the van der Waals ferromagnet using pixel-wise coherent Rabi and Ramsey imaging
of the NV sensor layer. Next, we fit the pixel-wise solution of the Hamiltonian
to the quantum sensor data. Combining data and model, we can explore the
detuning range of the spin oscillation with a quantum dynamic range of over
$\left|\Delta_{max}\right|= 60 { }\mathrm{MHz} $ in the Ramsey interferometry
mode. Finally, we show the effect of the $\mathrm{CrTe_2}$ van der Waals magnet
on the coherence of the NV sensor layer and measure a 70 times increase in the
maximum frequency of the quantum oscillation going from the Rabi to the Ramsey
imaging mode.

We explore the strong coupling limit of doped emphbosonic quantum magnets, specifically the antiferromagnetic (AFM) bosonic $t-J$ model.
As doping increases, a transition occurs to a partially-polarized ferromagnetic (FM) phase, driven by the motion of mobile bosonic charge carriers forming Nagaoka polarons.
These findings shed new light on the role of particle statistics in strongly correlated many-body systems, revealing connections tomagnet formation and the physics of kinetic (i.e., Nagaoka-type) ferromagnetism.

We use the resonant dipole-dipole interaction between Rydberg atoms and a periodic external microwave field to engineer XXZ spin Hamiltonians with tunable anisotropies.

We first benchmark the Hamiltonian engineering for two atoms, and then demonstrate the freezing of the magnetization on an initially magnetized 2D array.
