Metrolab Technology S.A. and Kwan-tek have announced a collaboration agreement, allowing Metrolab to industrialize, manufacture, and commercialize a next-generation Nitrogen-Vacancy (NV) Diamond–based magnetometer, marking a significant step forward in high-precision magnetic sensing for low fields (1-45 milliTeslas).
The NV Diamond’s frequency-based measurement architecture provides superior long-term stability and eliminates calibration overhead, making it ideally suited for demanding applications in quantum and cold-atom research that require absolute field stability, as well as in magnetic metrology, allowing to calibrate Hall probes for example.
“The NV Diamond technology is a great addition to our current offering of incredibly accurate NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) Teslameter; NV Diamond allows the measurement of smaller magnetic fields (down to 1mT) with the same “quantum accuracy” as NMR. We are thrilled to work with the fantastic Kwan-tek team by bringing their technology to Metrolab’s worldwide customers” says Thomas Hargé, CEO of Metrolab.
“Precision measurements of magnetic fields over a wide range are of great importance in several applications where the NV diamond technology bring decisive advantages. Partnering with the leader in magnetic instrumentation accelerates the adoption of our technology by leveraging the excellence of Kwan-tek in quantum sensing with the worldwide market position of Metrolab”, says Remi Geiger, founder and CEO of Kwan-tek.
