Under the National Quantum Mission (NQM) of the Department of Science and Technology (DST), P- Quest Group at the Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay (IIT Bombay) has developed India's first indigenous Quantum Diamond Microscope (QDM) for dynamic magnetic field imaging - a breakthrough that marks a milestone in quantum sensing and has earned India its first patent in this domain.

The QDM which was formally announced on the sidelines of the recently concluded Emerging Science Technology and Innovation Conclave (ESTIC 2025) has promising potential in neuroscience and materials research. It is also poised to transform the non-destructive evaluation of semiconductor chips by mapping magnetic field in 3...
