Nitrogen is the dominant impurity in the majority of natural and synthetic diamonds, and the family of nitrogen vacancy-type ($\mathrm{N_{n}V}$) defects are crucial in our understanding of defect dynamics in these diamonds. A significant…

In this work we use fluorescence from nitrogen-vacancy defects in diamond to detect and explore other paramagnetic defects in the diamond, such as P1 defects, which are commonly undetectable through optical detection of magnetic resonance…

Formation and excitation energies as well charge transition levels, are determined forthe substitutional nitrogen (Ns),the vacancy (V) and related point defects (NV, NVH, N2, N2V and V2) by screened non-local hybrid density functional…

The magneto-optic Voigt effect is observed in a synthetic diamond membrane with a substitutional nitrogen defect concentration in the order of 200 ppm and a nitrogen-vacancy defect sub-ensemble generated through neutron irradiation and…

We study features in the optically detected magnetic resonance (ODMR) signals associated with negatively charged nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers coupled to other paramagnetic impurities in diamond. Our results are important for understanding…

Irradiation of natural pink and brown diamond by middle-ultraviolet light (photon energy > 4.1 eV) is seen to induce anomalous fluorescence phenomena at N3 defect centres (structure N3-V). When diamonds primed in this fashion are…

Nitrogen impurities help to stabilize the negatively-charged-state of NV$^-$ in diamond, whereas magnetic fluctuations from nitrogen spins lead to decoherence of NV$^-$ qubits. It is not known what donor concentration optimizes these…

Characterizing the local internal environment surrounding solid-state spin defects is crucial to harnessing them as nanoscale sensors of external fields. This is especially germane to the case of defect ensembles which can exhibit a complex…

The negatively charged nitrogen-vacancy defect (NV)$^-$ in diamond has attracted much attention in recent years in qubit and biological applications. The negative charge is donated from nearby nitrogen donors that could limit or stem the…

We present an experimental and theoretical study of the optically detected magnetic resonance signals for ensembles of negatively charged nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in 13C isotopically enriched single-crystal diamond. We observe four…

It is suggested that the substitutional nitrogen in diamonds bonded to three of the surrounding carbon atoms instead of four. This proposed electron configuration of the defect is deduced from previous experiments and theoretical…

There is a continuous search for solid-state spin qubits operating at room temperature with excitation in the IR communication bandwidth. Recently we have introduced the photoelectric detection of magnetic resonance (PDMR) to read the…

The electronic spins of the nitrogen-vacancy centers (NV centers) in Chemical-Vapor-Deposition (CVD) grown diamonds form ideal probes of magnetic fields and temperature, as well as promising qu-bits for quantum information processing.…

Nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center in diamond is a promising quantum sensor with remarkably versatile sensing capabilities. While scanning NV magnetometry is well-established, NV electrometry has been so far limited to bulk diamonds. Here we…

We created dense ensembles of negatively charged nitrogen-vacancy (NV-) centers in diamond by neutron and electron irradiation for applications in hybrid quantum systems and magnetometry. We characterize fluorescence intensity, optical and…

Electrically-active defects have a significant impact on the performance of electronic devices based on wide band-gap materials such as diamond. This issue is ubiquitous in diamond science and technology, since the presence of charge traps…

The positively charged nitrogen vacancy (NV+) centre in diamond has been traditionally treated as a dark state due to the experimental lack of an optical signature. Recent computational studies have shown that it is possible for the NV+…

Using pulsed optically detected magnetic resonance techniques, we directly probe electron-spin resonance transitions in the excited-state of single Nitrogen-Vacancy color centers in diamond. Unambiguous assignment of excited state fine…

Although chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is one of the preferred routes to synthetic diamond crystals, a full knowledge of the point defects produced during growth is still incomplete. Here we exploit the charge and spin properties of…

The application of magnetic resonance (MR) spectroscopy at progressively smaller length scales may eventually permit "chemical imaging" of spins at the surfaces of materials and biological complexes. In particular, the negatively charged…
