Coherent Optical Transitions in Implanted Nitrogen Vacancy Centers [PDF]

Nano Letters, 2014
We report the observation of stable optical transitions in nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers created by ion implantation. Using a combination of high temperature annealing and subsequent surface treatment, we reproducibly create NV centers with zero-phonon lines (ZPL) exhibiting spectral diffusion that is close to the lifetime-limited optical line width ...

Relaxometry with Nitrogen Vacancy (NV) Centers in Diamond

Accounts of Chemical Research, 2022
Relaxometry is a technique which makes use of a specific crystal lattice defect in diamond, the so-called NV center. This defect consists of a nitrogen atom, which replaces a carbon atom in the diamond lattice, and an adjacent vacancy. NV centers allow converting magnetic noise into optical signals, which dramatically increases the sensitivity of the ...

Detecting external electron spins using nitrogen-vacancy centers [PDF]

Physical Review B, 2012
Near-surface nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers have been created in diamond through low energy implantation of 15N to sense electron spins that are external to the diamond. By performing double resonance experiments, we have verified the presence of g=2 spins on a diamond crystal that was subjected to various surface treatments, including coating with a ...

Coupling of Nitrogen-Vacancy Centers to Photonic Crystal Cavities in Monocrystalline Diamond [PDF]

, 2012
The zero-phonon transition rate of a nitrogen-vacancy center is enhanced by a factor of ~70 by coupling to a photonic crystal resonator fabricated in monocrystalline diamond using standard semiconductor fabrication techniques.

Physics and chemistry of hydrogen in the vacancies of semiconductors [PDF]

, 2003
Hydrogen is well known to cause electrical passivation of lattice vacancies in semiconductors. This effect follows from the chemical passivation of the dangling bonds.

Revealing the Emergence of Classicality Using Nitrogen-Vacancy Centers [PDF]

Physical Review Letters, 2019
The origin of classical reality in our quantum world is a long-standing mystery. Here, we examine a nitrogen vacancy center evolving naturally in the presence of its environment to study quantum Darwinism - the proliferation of information about preferred quantum states throughout the world via the environment.

Polarization and readout of coupled single spins in diamond [PDF]

, 2006
We study the coupling of a single nitrogen-vacancy center in diamond to a nearby single nitrogen defect at room temperature. The magnetic dipolar coupling leads to a splitting in the electron spin resonance frequency of the nitrogen-vacancy center ...

Mechanical Spin Control of Nitrogen-Vacancy Centers in Diamond [PDF]

Physical Review Letters, 2013
As spin-based quantum technology evolves, the ability to manipulate spin with non-magnetic fields is critical - both for the development of hybrid quantum systems and for compatibility with conventional technology. Particularly useful examples are electric fields, optical fields, and mechanical lattice vibrations.
