Surface adsorbates suppress low-frequency noise for shallow nitrogen-vacancy centers
Zhiyang Yuan, David A. Fehr, Kalliope Zervas +5
Shallow nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond are promising nanoscale quantum sensors, yet their coherence is strongly limited by surface-induced noise. Surface adsorbates are w…

An integrated ultrahigh vacuum cluster tool for diamond surface science and single nitrogen-vacancy center measurements
Zhiyang Yuan, Sorawis Sangtawesin, Lila V. H. Rodgers +5
We present a custom-designed ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) cluster tool developed for studying shallow nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond, enabling in situ diamond surface preparati…
