Foreword

Diamond exhibits several unique physical properties: a wide band gap, high thermal conductivity, hardness and inertness. These unique characteristics mean that diamond plays a unique role in many technologies. During the last decade, a new field of application of diamond related to quantum engineering has emerged. This book reports the fascinating progress that has been achieved in this rapidly developing interdisciplinary field of research.

A number of leading scientists have reported how the unique properties of diamond and methods for controlling those properties have created the potential for using ‘quantum diamond’ in a wide range of new technologies. There are three major applications of diamond in the context of the control ...
