SUMMARY:Probing and controlling 2D magnets through the lens of quantum
  sensors\, R. G. Herb Condensed Matter Seminar\, Brian Zhou\, Boston C
 ollege
DESCRIPTION:Recently\, the single electron spin of a defect in diamond
  known as the nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center has emerged as a versatile 
 nanoscale magnetometer capable of operation in extreme environments an
 d at diverse interfaces. In this seminar\, I will highlight my groupâ€
 ™s efforts to leverage NV quantum sensing for the high resolution imag
 ing and detection of dynamical magnetization responses in 2D layered m
 agnetic materials\, which are difficult to probe by alternative techni
 ques. We introduce novel quantum-enabled protocols to measure the ac m
 agnetic susceptibility and optically-induced magnetization dynamics in
  atomically thin magnets. Moreover\, we demonstrate the switching and 
 detection of antiphase even-layer states in a 2D A-type antiferromagne
 t. This control over antiferromagnetic domains enables multilevel exch
 ange bias on connected ferromagnetic-like regions through lateral exch
 ange coupling. NV quantum sensors thus open a unique lens for understa
 nding and controlling 2D magnetism for spintronic technologies.
