NV Diamond Micro-Magnetometer Baseline Studies

摘要

The goal of this program was to identify applications for which the unique properties of the nitrogen-vacancy (NV) diamond magnetometer gives a significant advantage. Most of the effort concentrated on improving the sensitivity of a single NV to the level where it could be used to detect a single nuclear spin at a distance of 10 nm. Scanning NV nanoprobe development was also explored and significant progress was made.
