This project aims to create a tool to systematically engineer optical properties of emitters in solids by understanding and manipulating materials atom by atom. The tool – an optically enhanced scanning tunnelling microscope – is expected to drive future developments in optical technologies. The project expects to deliver an atomic-scale understanding of rare-earth sites optimised for sensing and coherence. The expected outcomes include highly developed theoretical insights into solid-state emitters and how to control their interactions with light and other fields. The expected benefit based on the ability to engineer optimised emitters for optical sensors and quantum technologies will transform material science from exploration to design.

该项目旨在通过理解和操纵Atom的原子来创建一种工具，以系统地设计固体中发射器的光学特性。该工具 - 一种光学增强的扫描隧道显微镜 - 有望推动光学技术中的未来发展。该项目预计将对对敏感性和连贯性优化的稀土站点提供原子级的理解。预期的结果包括对固态发射器的高度发展的理论见解，以及如何控制其与光和其他领域的相互作用。基于设计用于光学传感器和量子技术的优化发射器的能力的预期收益将从勘探转变为设计。
