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…

Doubly-charged silicon vacancy center, photochromism, and Si-N complexes in co-doped diamond

B G Breeze, C J Meara, X X Wu +13

We report the first experimental observation of a doubly-charged defect in diamond, SiV2-, in silicon and nitrogen co-doped samples. We measure spectroscopic signatures we attribut…

Laser writing of individual atomic defects in a crystal with near-unity yield

Yu-Chen Chen, Benjamin Griffiths, Laiyi Weng +11

Atomic defects in wide band gap materials show great promise for development of a new generation of quantum information technologies, but have been hampered by the inability to pro…

Three-dimensional solid-state qubit arrays with long-lived spin coherence

C. J. Stephen, B. L. Green, Y. N. D. Lekhai +11

Three-dimensional arrays of silicon transistors increase the density of bits. Solid-state qubits are much larger so could benefit even more from using the third dimension given tha…

Electronic structure of the neutral silicon-vacancy center in diamond

B. L. Green, M. W. Doherty, E. Nako +5

The neutrally-charged silicon vacancy in diamond is a promising system for quantum technologies that combines high-efficiency, broadband optical spin polarization with long spin li…
