Nano Letters 12, no. 8: 3920–3924.1530-69841530-6992http://nrs.harvard.edu/urn-3:HUL.InstRepos:12582489We demonstrate coherent quantum control of a single spin driven by the motion of a mechanical resonator. The motion of a mechanical resonator is magnetically coupled to the electronic spin of a single nitrogen-vacancy center in diamond. Synchronization of spin-addressing protocols to the motion of the driven oscillator is used to fully exploit the coherence of this hybrid mechanical-spin system. We demonstrate applications of this coherent mechanical spin-control technique to nanoscale scanning magnetometry.en-USElectron spinmechanical resonatorhybrid mechanical-spin systemnitrogen-vacancy (NV) centernanoscale magnetometrynanoscale motion sensorJournal Article2014-02-24Mikhail Lukin2014-07-2810.1021/nl300775c
