Electron spin resonance from NV centers in diamonds levitating in an ion trap
arXiv:1605.02953 · doi:10.1088/1367-2630/aa659c
Abstract
We report observations of the Electron Spin Resonance (ESR) of Nitrogen Vacancy (NV) centers in diamonds that are levitating in an ion trap. Using a needle Paul trap operating under ambient conditions, we demonstrate efficient microwave driving of the electronic spin and show that the spin properties of deposited diamond particles measured by the ESR are retained in the Paul trap. We also exploit the ESR signal to monitor the rotation of levitating monocrystals, a first step towards spin-controlled mechanical systems in scattering-free traps.
