Abstract

We realized ultrafast three-dimensional tracking of multiple nanodiamond sen-sors using a digital micromirror device, and therefore achieved three-dimensional dynami-cal multi-point quantum sensing. This work enables a broad range of applications such as multi-point temperature monitoring in live cells.

Nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centres are exceptional solid-state quantum sensors with optically addressable spins. With room-temperature operability and biocompatibility, functionalised NV centres in nanodiamonds facilitate atomic-scale tracking and real-time monitoring of physical and chemical properties within living systems [1]. Conventionally, these systems work by addressing stochastically-positioned defects with a complex bulk-optic microscope [2] or using a single scanning probe, limited in scalability and the ability to capture spatial and temporal information simultaneously.

Super-Resolution Enabled Widefield Quantum Diamond Microscopy

Widefield quantum diamond microscopy (WQDM) based on Kohler illumination has been widely adopted in the field of quantum sensing; however, practical applications are still limited by issues such as unavoidable photodamage and unsatisfied spatial-resolution. Here, we design and develop a super-resolution-enabled WQDM using a digital micromirror device (DMD)-based structured illumination microscope. With the rapidly programmable illumination patterns, we have first demonstrated how to mitigate phototoxicity when imaging nanodiamonds in cell samples. As a showcase, we have performed the super-resolved quantum sensing measurements of two individual nanodiamonds not even distinguishable with conventional WQDM. The DMD-powered WQDM presents not only excellent compatibility with quantum sensing solutions, but also strong advantages in high imaging speed, high resolution, low phototoxicity, and an enhanced signal-to-background ratio, making it a competent tool for applications in demanding fields such as biomedical science.

Temperature field ultrafast detection and identification quantum sensor based on diamond array

Wei Gao, Jinyu Tai, Zhiqiang Xiang +13 more

Ultrafast temperature field detection and identification is crucial for applications ranging from environmental sensing and biomedical monitoring to thermal management in advanced energy systems. Conventional temperature sensors-comprising discrete sensing arrays, data storage units, and external processors-suffer from high latency due to slow sensor response, repeated analog-to-digital conversions, and extensive data transmission inherent to von Neumann architectures. Here, we report a diamond array-based quantum sensor that integrates temperature sensing and real-time processing within a unified in-sensor computing (ISC) architecture. Exploiting the strong linear correlation between temperature and the zero-field splitting of nitrogen-vacancy (NV) color center centers in diamond, we realize a fixed-frequency temperature sensor with ultrafast response and tunable responsivity, enabled by multi-parameter microwave modulate. Matrix-vector multiplication of temperature intensity and responsivity, combined with Kirchhoff's current summation, enables direct execution of neural-network-style computations on sensed data. The proposed system achieves a single-shot detection and identification latency of just 196.8 μs, as experimentally validated. This work demonstrates a scalable ISC-enabled quantum sensing paradigm, offering a promising route toward high-speed, low-power intelligent temperature field detection.
