Suppression of spin-bath dynamics for improved coherence of multi-spin-qubit systems
(Springer Nature, 2012)
Multi-qubit systems are crucial for the advancement and application of quantum science. Such systems require maintaining long coherence times while increasing the number of qubits available for coherent manipulation. For ...
Enhanced solid-state multispin metrology using dynamical decoupling
(American Physical Society (APS), 2012)
We use multipulse dynamical decoupling to increase the coherence lifetime (T2) of large numbers of nitrogen-vacancy (NV) electronic spins in room temperature diamond, thus enabling scalable applications of multispin quantum ...
Efficient photon detection from color centers in a diamond optical waveguide
(American Physical Society (APS), 2012)
A common limitation of experiments using color centers in diamond is the poor photon collection efficiency of microscope objectives due to refraction at the diamond interface. We present a simple and effective technique ...
Enhanced metrology using preferential orientation of nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond
(American Physical Society (APS), 2012)
We demonstrate preferential orientation of nitrogen-vacancy (NV) color centers along two of four possible crystallographic axes in diamonds grown by chemical vapor deposition on the {100} face. We identify the relevant ...
Magnetic Field Imaging with Nitrogen-Vacancy Ensembles
(Institute of Physics, 2011)
We demonstrate a method of imaging spatially varying magnetic fields using a thin layer of nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers at the surface of a diamond chip. Fluorescence emitted by the two-dimensional NV ensemble is detected ...
Coherence of Nitrogen-Vacancy Electronic Spin Ensembles in Diamond
(American Physical Society, 2010)
We present an experimental and theoretical study of electronic spin decoherence in ensembles of nitrogen-vacancy (NV) color centers in bulk high-purity diamond at room temperature. Under appropriate conditions, we find ...
Nanoscale NMR spectroscopy and imaging of multiple nuclear species
(Nature Publishing Group, 2015)
Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provide non-invasive information about multiple nuclear species in bulk matter, with wide-ranging applications from basic physics and ...
NMR technique for determining the depth of shallow nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond
(American Physical Society (APS), 2016)
We demonstrate a robust experimental method for determining the depth of individual shallow nitrogen-vacancy
(NV) centers in diamond with ∼1 nm uncertainty. We use a confocal microscope to observe single NV centers ...
