Origins of diamond surface noise probed by correlating single spin measurements with surface spectroscopy
Sorawis Sangtawesin, Bo L. Dwyer, Srikanth Srinivasan +15
The nitrogen vacancy (NV) center in diamond exhibits spin-dependent fluorescence and long spin coherence times under ambient conditions, enabling applications in quantum informatio…

Impact of surface functionalisation on the quantum coherence of nitrogen vacancy centres in nanodiamond
R. G. Ryan, A. Stacey, K. M. O'Donnell +5
Nanoscale quantum probes such as the nitrogen-vacancy centre in diamond have demonstrated remarkable sensing capabilities over the past decade as control over the fabrication and m…

Extremely high negative electron affinity of diamond via magnesium adsorption
Kane M. O'Donnell, Mark T. Edmonds, Anton Tadich +5
We report large negative electron affinity (NEA) on diamond (100) using magnesium adsorption on a previously oxygen-terminated surface. The measured NEA is up to e…
