This week’s Undergraduate STEM Research Seminar will be given by Katherine Smith, a senior at Cookeville High School. Katherine works with a quantum system created by Nitrogen-Vacancy defects in diamond. In her talk Development and Characterization of a CW Nitrogen-Vacancy Magnetometer, Katherine will describe how she generates and interprets spectra from this system in order to sense magnetic fields. The seminar will be this Friday at 4pm in Bruner Hall 210, with snacks served starting at 3:30pm. These seminars are geared for undergraduates from any STEM major, but graduate students and faculty are also encouraged to attend!
