Coherent Microwave Control of a Nuclear Spin Ensemble at Room Temperature
P. Huillery, J. Leibold, T. Delord +4
We use nominally forbidden electron-nuclear spin transitions in nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond to demonstrate coherent manipulation of a nuclear spin ensemble using micro…
Spin-Cooling of the Motion of a Trapped Diamond
T. Delord, P. Huillery, L. Nicolas +1
Observing and controlling macroscopic quantum systems has long been a driving force in research on quantum physics. In this endeavor, strong coupling between individual quantum sys…
Spin-mechanics with levitating ferromagnetic particles
P. Huillery, T. Delord, L. Nicolas +3
We propose and demonstrate first steps towards schemes where the librational mode of levitating ferromagnets is strongly coupled to the electronic spin of Nitrogen-Vacancy (NV) cen…
Sub-GHz linewidths ensembles of SiV centers in a diamond nano-pyramid revealed by charge state conversion
L. Nicolas, T. Delord, P. Huillery +2
Producing nano-structures with embedded bright ensembles of lifetime-limited emitters is a challenge with potential high impact in a broad range of physical sciences. In this work,…
Diamond nano-pyramids with narrow linewidth SiV centers for quantum technologies
L. Nicolas, T. Delord, P. Huillery +2
Color centers in diamond are versatile solid state atomic-like systems suitable for quantum technological applications. In particular, the negatively charged silicon vacancy center…
Ramsey interferences and spin echoes from electron spins inside a levitating macroscopic particle
T. Delord, P. Huillery, L. Schwab +3
We report observations of Ramsey interferences and spin echoes from electron spins inside a levitating macroscopic particle. The experiment is realized using nitrogen-vacancy (NV)…
Coherent Population Trapping with a controlled dissipation: applications in optical metrology
L. Nicolas, T. Delord, P. Jamonneau +4
We analyze the properties of a pulsed Coherent Population Trapping protocol that uses a controlled decay from the excited state in a -level scheme. We study this problem analyti…
Strong Coupling between a Single NV Spin and the Rotational Mode of Diamonds Levitating in an Ion Trap
T. Delord, L. Nicolas, Y. Chassagneux +1
A scheme for strong coupling between a single atomic spin and the rotational mode of levitating nanoparticles is proposed. The idea is based on spin read-out of NV centers embedded…
Diamonds levitating in a Paul trap under vacuum: measurements of laser-induced heating via NV center thermometry
T. Delord, L. Nicolas, M. Bodini +1
We present measurements of the Electronic Spin Resonance (ESR) of Nitrogen Vacancy (NV) centers in diamonds that are levitating in a ring Paul trap under vacuum. We observe ESR spe…
Electron spin resonance from NV centers in diamonds levitating in an ion trap
Tom Delord, Louis Nicolas, Lucien Schwab +1
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 unde…
