Strain-Induced Detuning of a Dressed Nitrogen-Vacancy Qubit: Effective Two-Level Theory and Its Validity

Jihyeon Jeon, Donghun Lee, Seok-Kyun Son +1

The nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center in diamond can be operated as a microwave-dressed qubit. In the ideal two-level limit, its transition frequency is first-order insensitive to stati…
