Spin coherence and depths of single nitrogen-vacancy centers created by ion implantation into diamond via screening masks

Shuntaro Ishizu, Kento Sasaki, Daiki Misonou +3

We characterize single nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers created by 10-keV N+ ion implantation into diamond via thin SiO layers working as screening masks. Despite the relatively h…

Detection and control of single proton spins in a thin layer of diamond grown by chemical vapor deposition

Kento Sasaki, Hideyuki Watanabe, Hitoshi Sumiya +2

We report detection and coherent control of a single proton nuclear spin using an electronic spin of the nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center in diamond as a quantum sensor. In addition to…

Construction and operation of a tabletop system for nanoscale magnetometry with single nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond

Daiki Misonou, Kento Sasaki, Shuntaro Ishizu +3

A single nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center in diamond is a prime candidate for a solid-state quantum magnetometer capable of detecting single nuclear spins with prospective application…

Determination of the Position of a Single Nuclear Spin from Free Nuclear Precessions Detected by a Solid-State Quantum Sensor

Kento Sasaki, Kohei M. Itoh, Eisuke Abe

We report on a nanoscale quantum-sensing protocol which tracks a free precession of a single nuclear spin and is capable of estimating an azimuthal angle---a parameter which standa…

Time-Dependent Stochastic Acceleration Model for the Fermi Bubbles

Kento Sasaki, Katsuaki Asano, Toshio Terasawa

We study stochastic acceleration models for the Fermi bubbles. Turbulence is excited just behind the shock front via Kelvin--Helmholtz, Rayleigh--Taylor, or Richtmyer--Meshkov inst…

Time and Space Dependent Stochastic Acceleration Model for the Fermi Bubbles

K. Sasaki, K. Asano, T. Terasawa

Fermi-LAT reveals two huge gamma-ray bubbles existing in the Galactic Center, called 'Fermi Bubbles'. The existence of two microwave bubbles at the same region are also reported by…

Spinning eggs--which end will rise?

Ken Sasaki

We examine the spinning behavior of egg-shaped axisymmetric bodies whose cross sections are described by several oval curves similar to real eggs with thin and fat ends. We use the…

Thermal and Tunneling Pair Creation of Quasiparticles in Quantum Hall Systems

K. Sasaki, Z. F. Ezawa

We make a semiclassical analysis of thermal pair creations of quasiparticles at various filling factors in quantum Hall systems. It is argued that the gap energy is reduced conside…
