Laser writing of preferentially orientated nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond [PDF]
Nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond have gained widespread attention as quantum systems that can be applied in quantum information devices. The excellent properties of quantum devices can be enhanced using preferentially oriented nitrogen-vacancy (NV ...

Coupling Nitrogen-Vacancy Centers in Diamond to Superconducting Flux Qubits [PDF]
We propose a method to achieve coherent coupling between Nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond and superconducting (SC) flux qubits. The resulting coupling can be used to create a coherent interaction between the spin states of distant NV centers mediated by the flux qubit.

Vibrational and electronic ultrafast relaxation of the nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond
Two dimensional electronic spectroscopy and transient grating measurements were performed, for the first time, on nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond. These measurements reveal energy transfer and vibrational pathways with consequences for spin coherence.

Terahertz emission from diamond nitrogen-vacancy centers
Coherent light sources emitting in the terahertz range are highly sought after for fundamental research and applications. Terahertz lasers rely on achieving population inversion. We demonstrate the generation of terahertz radiation using nitrogen-vacancy centers in a diamond single crystal.

Light dark matter search with nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamonds [PDF]
We propose an approach to directly search for light dark matter, such as the axion or the dark photon, by using magnetometry with nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamonds. If the dark matter couples to the electron spin, it affects the evolution of the Bloch

Conversion of neutral nitrogen-vacancy centers to negatively charged nitrogen-vacancy centers through selective oxidation [PDF]
The conversion of neutral nitrogen-vacancy centers to negatively charged nitrogen-vacancy centers is demonstrated for centers created by ion implantation and annealing in high-purity diamond. Conversion occurs with surface exposure to an oxygen atmosphere at 465 °C. The spectral properties of the charge-converted centers are investigated.

TR12 centers in diamond as a room temperature atomic scale vector magnetometer
The family of room temperature atomic scale magnetometers is currently limited to nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond. However, nitrogen-vacancy centers are insensitive to strong off-axis magnetic fields.
