15:20 → 15:40 Diamond Quibits for Everyone: NV-Center Quantum Computing (XeeDQ)

In this presentation, I will introduce quantum computing with diamond-based qubits, focusing on nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers. NV-based quantum computers operate at room temperature and ambient pressure in compact, mobile devices, making them a cost-effective and accessible alternative to other platforms. I will discuss how our work at XeedQ aims to democratize quantum computing by making these systems available for research, education, and practical applications. Additionally, I will compare NV-based quantum computing with other state-of-the-art quantum computers and share our approach to scaling NV systems to larger qubit numbers.
