Abstract

甚低频(VLF)指的是3~30 kHz的频段,甚低频无线电波的接收、分析技术在地下成像、全球通信等方面均有重要应用。基于金刚石氮-空位(NV)色心的甚低频接收天线具有体积小、动态范围大、频带范围宽、自带矢量特性等优点。采用连续波光学探测磁共振(ODMR)结合I/Q微波频率调制方法,通过读取NV色心经532 nm激光激发得到的荧光信号,实现了对10 kHz甚低频无线电波的探测,探测灵敏度为14.35 nT/Hz1/2。使用该天线对频率为10 kHz、磁感应强度为30 μT的实时频率调制信号进行通信信号接收实验,实现了比特率为99 bit/s的连续无误码电磁波信号的接收,并绘制其天线方向性图谱,证明了该天线能接收甚低频电磁波信号并具有判断信源方向的能力。

量子控制在氮-空位心测量系统中的应用(特邀)

龙桂鲁 Long Guilu, 张飞昊 Zhang Feihao

氮-空位(NV)色心是金刚石样品中具有独特光学性质的缺陷结构,在室温条件下即可展现显著的量子特性,并能对磁场、电场、应力、温度等物理量产生灵敏响应,因而成为微纳尺度量子测量研究的理想系统。NV系统受到13C核自旋、P1色心及NV之间的相互作用等多种环境因素的影响,会产生退相干现象,同时操控误差的积累也会降低探测灵敏度。为抑制这些环境和控制误差影响,并提升测量灵敏度,动力学解耦、量子最优化控制和形状脉冲等量子控制技术在NV色心测量中得到广泛应用,并取得了深入发展。本综述主要介绍这些应用于NV色心探测系统的量子控制方法,并对其近期进展进行综述。

Optimization of optical control of nitrogen vacancy centers in solid diamond

Yuan-Yao Feng, Zhonghao Li, Yang Zhang +7 more

The nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond have the advantages of stable triaxial structure, ultra-long electron spin coherence time and simple optical readout at room temperature. A nitrogen atom in the diamond crystal replaces a carbon atom and a vacancy is generated at the adjacent position, forming a point defect in the C3v space group structure. Its ground state and excited state are both spin triplet states. It is the key to achieving efficient preparation of optical initial state and extracting NV color center’s information in the researches of highly sensitive sensing magnetic detection, temperature detection, biological imaging, quantum computing, etc. However, there was no systematic study on relevant parameters of laser for high-concentration NV color center’s samples in previous experimental studies. Based on a high concentration diamond NV ensemble, we use pulsed optical detection magnetic resonance (ODMR) technology to systematically study the relationship among laser initial polarization time, information reading time and laser power, and the influence of laser incident polarization angle on the accuracy of sensing information. The effects of various laser parameters on the NV1 peak of ODMR on the [111] axis of the NVs of diamond are also investigated. The contrast of ODMR increases firstly with a sigmoid function and then decreases with an e-exponential function as the information reading time increases. The incident polarization angle of the laser is sinusoidal, with a period of 90°. According to the above experimental results, we finally choose the appropriate experimental parameters at 45.8 W/cm2 (300 μs of polarization, 700 ns, reading time, laser incident angle is 220°) for ODMR test. Compared with previous experimental parameters (polarization time was 50 us, read the time of 3000 ns, laser incident angle was 250°), the experimental results show that the contrast of ODMR increases from 2.1% to 4.6%, and the typical magnetic sensitivity is improved from 21.6 nT/Hz1/2 to 5.6 nT/Hz1/2. The optimization of the optical control of NVs in solid diamond is realized. The above results provide an effective support for the detection of high-sensitivity manipulation sensing based on high-concentration NV ensemble.

Simultaneous thermometry and magnetometry using a fiber-coupled quantum diamond sensor

Yuji Hatano, Jae-Won Shin, Daisuke Nishitani +9 more

Energy conservation and battery life extension are key challenges for the next-generation hybrid electric vehicles. In particular, the temperature and electric currents in a storage battery need to be monitored simultaneously with ∼1 kHz signal bandwidth for optimum battery usage. Here we introduce a centimeter-scale portable quantum sensor head, consisting of a diamond substrate hosting an ensemble of nitrogen-vacancy (NV) color centers with a density of ∼3 × 1017 cm−3. One diamond surface is attached to a multi-mode fiber for simultaneous optical excitation and readout of the NV centers, while the other diamond surface is attached to a coplanar microwave guide for NV spin ground-state mixing. Signal bandwidth of 1 kHz was realized through time-domain multiplexing of the two-tone microwave frequency modulation at 20 kHz. Two microwave frequencies were locked to the two resonance points that were determined from the optically detected magnetic resonance spectrum. From the mean and the difference of the deviation from the two locked frequencies, the temperature and magnetic field were obtained simultaneously and independently, with sensitivities of 3.5 nT/Hz1/2 and 1.3 mK/Hz1/2, respectively. We also showed that our sensor reached a minimum detectable magnetic field of 5 pT by accumulating signals for over 10 000 s.
