Yakovlev develops label-free biomedical imaging: Brillouin micro-spectroscopy of cell/tissue viscoelasticity, impulsive stimulated Brillouin scattering, SERS and coherent-Raman diagnostics, and quantum-enhanced (photon-number-resolving, sub-shot-noise) optical imaging in collaboration with Agarwal/Scully. In the broader landscape of NV-centre ensemble quantum sensing (DEER, nano-NMR, T1 relaxometry) operating near pT/sqrt(Hz) sensitivity, this work provides the biomedical, quantum-enhanced-imaging bridge for spin-sensor bio-applications.
