200 keV energy electron irradiation of single crystal diamond: Quantification of vacancy and nitrogen-vacancy production

Chloe C Newsom, Lillian B Hughes, Ben L Green +2

Electron irradiation and annealing treatments are a method of colour centre/defect creation in diamond. The depth profile of defects created by low energy 200 keV electrons in sing…

Phosphorescence and donor-acceptor pair recombination in laboratory-grown diamonds

Jiahui Zhao, Ben L. Green, Ben G. Breeze +1

Intense "blue-green" phosphorescence is commonly observed in near colourless lab-grown high-pressure high-temperature (HPHT) diamonds following optical excitation at or above the i…

Long Spin Coherence Times of Nitrogen Vacancy Centres in Milled Nanodiamonds

B. D. Wood, G. A. Stimpson, J. E. March +8

Nanodiamonds containing negatively charged nitrogen vacancy centres () have applications as localized sensors in biological material and have been proposed as a pl…

Imaging damage in steel using a diamond magnetometer

L. Q. Zhou, R. L. Patel, A. C. Frangeskou +6

We demonstrate a simple, robust and contactless method for non-destructive testing of magnetic materials such as steel. This uses a fiber-coupled magnetic sensor based on nitrogen…

Sub-nanotesla magnetometry with a fibre-coupled diamond sensor

R. L. Patel, L. Q. Zhou, A. C. Frangeskou +12

Sensing small magnetic fields is relevant for many applications ranging from geology to medical diagnosis. We present a fiber-coupled diamond magnetometer with a sensitivity of (31…

Decoration of growth sector boundaries with single nitrogen vacancy centres in as-grown single crystal HPHT synthetic diamond

Philip L. Diggle, Ulrika F. S. D'Haenens-Johansson, Ben L. Green +5

Large (> 100 mm), relatively pure (type II) and low birefringence single crystal diamond can be produced by high pressure high temperature (HPHT) synthesis. In this study we ex…
