Origin of the inhomogeneous linewidth in a solid state Th:CaF nuclear clock

Kai Li, Tian Ooi, Jack F. Doyle +7

Narrow linewidth (high-Q) quantum discriminators are essential for realizing solid-state Th nuclear clocks, yet the observed transition linewidths remain at the tens-to-hun…

Nanoscale NMR of DNA-Functionalized Diamond Using Individual NV Centers

Erika Janitz, Konstantin Herb, Laura A. Völker +2

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is a powerful probe of molecular structure and dynamics but typically requires large spin ensembles. Here, we demonstrate nanoscale NM…

Spin counting via projection noise measurement of mesoscopic solid-state spin ensemble

Lorenzo Bechelli, Konstantin Herb, Laura Alicia Völker +1

Quantum projection noise is the fundamental noise source for the population measurement of spin ensembles. While projection-noise-limited measurements have been extensively studied…
