    • Coherent Sensing of a Mechanical Resonator with a Single-Spin Qubit 

      Kolkowitz, Shimon Jacob; Bleszynski Jayich, A. C.; Unterreithmeier, Quirin; Bennett, S. D.; Rabl, P.; Harris, J. G. E.; Lukin, Mikhail D. (American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), 2012)
      Mechanical systems can be influenced by a wide variety of small forces, ranging from gravitational to optical, electrical, and magnetic. When mechanical resonators are scaled down to nanometer-scale dimensions, these forces ...
    • Efficient Readout of a Single Spin State in Diamond via Spin-to-Charge Conversion 

      Shields, Brendan John; Unterreithmeier, Quirin; de Leon, N; Park, H; Lukin, Mikhail D. (American Physical Society (APS), 2015)
      Efficient readout of individual electronic spins associated with atomlike impurities in the solid state is essential for applications in quantum information processing and quantum metrology. We demonstrate a new method for ...
    • Measuring mechanical motion with a single spin 

      Bennett, S D; Kolkowitz, Shimon Jacob; Unterreithmeier, Quirin; Rabl, P; Bleszynski Jayich, A C; Harris, J G E; Lukin, Mikhail D. (Institute of Physics, 2012)
      We study theoretically the measurement of a mechanical oscillator using a single two-level system as a detector. In a recent experiment, we used a single electronic spin associated with a nitrogen–vacancy center in diamond ...
    • Sensing Distant Nuclear Spins with a Single Electron Spin 

      Kolkowitz, Shimon Jacob; Unterreithmeier, Quirin; Bennett, Steven; Lukin, Mikhail D. (American Physical Society (APS), 2012)
      We experimentally demonstrate the use of a single electronic spin to measure the quantum dynamics of distant individual nuclear spins from within a surrounding spin bath. Our technique exploits coherent control of the ...
