A superradiant maser with nitrogen-vacancy center spins [PDF]
Recent experiments have demonstrated Rabi-oscillations, superradiant pulses and stimulated emission from negatively-charged nitrogen-vacancy ($\mathrm{NV}^{-}$) center spins in microwave resonators. These phenomena witness the kind of collective and strong coupling which has been prerequisite for observation of superradiant lasing in the optical ...

Spin-Mechanics with Nitrogen-Vacancy Centers and Trapped Particles [PDF]
Controlling the motion of macroscopic oscillators in the quantum regime has been the subject of intense research in recent decades. In this direction, opto-mechanical systems, where the motion of micro-objects is strongly coupled with laser light radiation pressure, have had tremendous success.

Decoherence Control of Nitrogen-Vacancy Centers [PDF]
AbstractQuantum mechanical systems lose coherence through interacting with external environments—a process known as decoherence. Although decoherence is detrimental for most of the tasks in quantum information processing, a substantial degree of decoherence is crucial for boosting the efficiency of quantum processes, for example, in quantum biology and

Relaxometry with Nitrogen Vacancy (NV) Centers in Diamond
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 ...

We demonstrate a simple dip-coating method of covering standard AFM tips with nanodiamonds containing color centers. Such coating enables convenient visualization of AFM tips above transparent samples as well as using the tip for performing spatially resolved magnetometry. Full Text: PDF ReferencesG. Binnig, C. F.

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.

Amplified nanoscale detection of labeled molecules via surface electrons on diamond
The detection of individual molecules and their dynamics is a long-standing challenge in the field of nanotechnology. In this work, we present a method that utilizes a nitrogen vacancy (NV) center and a dangling bond on the diamond surface to measure the

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

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