Robust Detection of High-Frequency Signals at the Nanoscale

Abstract

We present a method relying on shortcuts to adiabaticity to achieve quantum detection of high frequency signals at the nanoscale in a robust manner. More specifically, our protocol delivers tailored amplitudes and frequencies for control fields that, firstly, enable the coupling of the sensor with high-frequency signals and, secondly, minimise errors that would otherwise spoil the detection process. To exemplify the method, we particularise to detection of signals emitted by fast-rotating nuclear spins with nitrogen vacancy center quantum sensors. However, our protocol is straightforwardly applicable to other quantum devices such as silicon vacancy centers, germanium vacancy centers, or divacancies in silicon carbide.
