Sensing Single-Molecule Magnets with Nitrogen-Vacancy Centers

Nano Letters
Single-molecule magnets (SMMs) are molecules that can function as nanoscale magnets with potential use as magnetic memory bits. While SMMs can retain magnetization at low temperatures, characterizing them on surfaces and at room temperature remains challenging and requires specialized nanoscale techniques.

Local excitation of surface plasmon polaritons using nitrogen-vacancy centers [PDF]

, 2015
Surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) are locally excited at silver surfaces using (∼100) nanometer-sized nanodiamonds (NDs) with multiple nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers (∼400).

Optical and spin properties of nitrogen vacancy centers in diamond formed along high-energy heavy ion tracks

Communications Materials
Exposure of matter to high-energy heavy ions induces defects along the ion trajectories through electronic and nuclear energy loss processes. Defects, including color centers, can recombine or form along latent damage tracks in semiconductors.
