Ultra-broadband coplanar waveguide for optically detected magnetic resonance of nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond

Wenfei Jia, Zhifu Shi, Xi Qin +2 more

We report on coplanar waveguides (CPWs) designed for optically detected magnetic resonance of nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamonds. A broad band up to 15.8 GHz has been realized, which ensures that the electron spins can be manipulated under external magnetic fields up to 5000 G. The conversion factor of CPW has been measured by Rabi nutation experiments, which ranges from 6.64 G W−1/2 to 10.60 G W−1/2 in the frequency band from 0.76 GHz to 17.3 GHz. Broadband CPWs also provide high quality control pulses due to the minimization of the distortion. These characteristics will find potential applications in NV-based quantum information processing and single spin magnetometry.

Spin Contrast of Purcell-Enhanced Nitrogen-Vacancy Centers in Diamond

Simeon Bogdanov, Mikhail Y. Shalaginov, Alexey V. Akimov +9 more

Nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond allow coherent spin state manipulation and optical readout at room temperature, which has powerful applications in nanoscale sensing. Nanophotonic structures such as plasmonic waveguides, nanoantennae, metamaterials, and metasurfaces can enhance the detected fluorescence rate from such broadband emitters. The fluorescence of the coupled emitter is directed into confined plasmonic modes with high photonic density of states. However, an accurate spin readout requires both high photon counts and a strong contrast between the spin states, both of which can be influenced by the Purcell effect. We introduce a novel method for measuring the spin contrast in large nitrogen-vacancy ensembles. We use this method to study how the photonic density of states must be engineered in order to minimize the uncertainty of spin readout in dense NV ensembles. We describe these results using a kinetic model of the nitrogen-vacancy’s internal dynamics.
