Abstract:

This final report details our labs accomplishments on nanoscale magnetic sensing using a nitrogen-vacancy NV center in diamond. Significant accomplishments funded by this award include 1 characterization of the surface induced decoherence with shallow, depth calibrated NV spins exhibiting long coherence times accepted to PRL. 2 Construction of a combined atomic force microscope AFM and confocal microscope with 1 nm position stability. 3 The formation of high-quality factor single-crystal diamond mechanical resonators with integrated nanowire tips. 4 The formation of high-quality NV centers via chemical vapor deposition diamond growth with nitrogen delta-doping and the development of techniques such as patterned transmission electron microscope irradiation and patterned 12C implantation to form localized NV centers with long coherence times. 5Scanned probe detection of a nanoscale volume of Gd3 ions attached to a scanning tip using relaxation imaging. 6 Detection of a nanoscale volume of nuclear spins using a single spin in bulk diamond.
