Free-Standing Mechanical and Photonic Nanostructures in Single-Crystal Diamond
(American Chemical Society (ACS), 2012)
A variety of nanoscale photonic, mechanical, electronic, and optoelectronic devices require scalable thin film fabrication. Typically, the device layer is defined by thin film deposition on a substrate of a different ...
Tailoring Light-Matter Interaction with a Nanoscale Plasmon Resonator
(American Physical Society (APS), 2012)
We propose and demonstrate a new approach for achieving enhanced light-matter interactions with quantum emitters. Our approach makes use of a plasmon resonator composed of defect-free, highly crystalline silver nanowires ...
Nanometre-scale thermometry in a living cell
(Nature Publishing Group, 2013)
Sensitive probing of temperature variations on nanometre scales is an outstanding challenge in many areas of modern science and technology. In particular, a thermometer capable of subdegree temperature resolution over a ...
Coupling of NV Centers to Photonic Crystal Nanobeams in Diamond
(American Chemical Society (ACS), 2013)
The realization of efficient optical interfaces for solid-state atom-like systems is an important problem in quantum science with potential applications in quantum communications and quantum information processing. We ...
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 ...
Near-field Electrical Detection of Optical Plasmons and Single Plasmon Sources
(Nature Publishing Group, 2009)
Photonic circuits can be much faster than their electronic counterparts, but they are difficult to miniaturize below the optical wavelength scale. Nanoscale photonic circuits based on surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) are ...
Deterministic Coupling of a Single Nitrogen Vacancy Center to a Photonic Crystal Cavity
(American Chemical Society, 2010)
We describe and experimentally demonstrate a technique for deterministic, large coupling between a photonic crystal (PC) nanocavity and single photon emitters. The technique is based on in situ scanning of a PC cavity over ...
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 ...
Magnetic resonance spectroscopy of an atomically thin material using a single-spin qubit
(American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), 2017)
Two-dimensional (2D) materials offer a promising platform for exploring condensed matter phenomena and developing technological applications. However, the reduction of material dimensions to the atomic scale poses a challenge ...
Nuclear magnetic resonance detection and spectroscopy of single proteins using quantum logic
(American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), 2016)
Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy is a powerful tool for the structural analysis of organic compounds and biomolecules but typically requires macroscopic sample quantities. We use a sensor, which consists of two ...
