  • Silicon carbide magnetometer and associated material formation methods
    Patent number: 11993864
    Abstract: A method for forming a silicon carbide material with a plurality of negatively charged silicon mono-vacancy defects includes irradiating a silicon carbide sample, annealing the irradiated silicon carbide sample in an annealing operation, and quenching the annealed silicon carbide sample. Quenching may include heating the annealed silicon carbide sample to a maximum temperature and quenching the annealed silicon carbide sample to form the silicon carbide sample with the plurality of negatively charged silicon mono-vacancy defects.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 2, 2021
    Date of Patent: May 28, 2024
    Assignee: The Johns Hopkins University
    Inventors: John B. Abraham, Brian D. Clader, Robert Osiander, Cameron A. Gutgsell, Dalibor J. Todorovski, Scott A. Sperling, Jacob E. Epstein, Timothy M. Sweeney, Elizabeth A. Pogue, Tyrel M. McQueen
