Scanning-probe and wide-field magnetic microscopes based on Nitrogen-Vacancy (NV) centers in diamond have enabled remarkable advances in the study of biology and materials, but each method has drawbacks. Here, we implement an alternative…
Alkali metal ions such as sodium and potassium cations play fundamental roles in biology. Developing highly sensitive and selective methods to both detect and quantify these ions is of considerable importance for medical diagnostics and…
Diamonds offer unique benefits for optical technology development due to their optical, chemical, electrical, mechanical, and thermal properties. These attributes also contribute to their aesthetic appeal, high commercial value, and utility…
Nanomaterials, in addition to their small size, possess unique physicochemical properties that differ from the bulk materials, making them ideal for a host of novel applications. Magnetic nanoparticle (MNP) is one important class of…
