  • The synthesis of highly pure diamond nanocrystals with a very small amount of paramagnetic impurities allows the observation of electron spin-dephasing times of up to 1.8 ms, a record for solid-state materials. The result could have important implications for quantum information processing methods based on diamond.

  • There is an extensive literature discussing the potential applications of individual nitrogen vacancy centres but some proposed developments require the use of multiple, coupled defects. Here the authors demonstrate a method to fabricate coupled nitrogen vacancy centre triplets.

  • High sensitivity in quantum sensing comes often at the expense of other figures of merit, usually resulting in distortion. Here, the authors propose a protocol with good sensitivity, readout linearity and high frequency resolution, and benchmark it through signal measurements at audio bands with NV centers.

  • Signals that look the same from their low-order correlations can often be distinguished by looking at higher-order ones. Here, the authors exploit the sensitivity of quantum nonlinear spectroscopy to fourth-order correlations to identify Gaussian noises, random-phased AC fields, and quantum spins.

  • Hyperpolarization of nuclear spins for enhancing the sensitivity of magnetic resonance can typically be achieved at low temperatures. Here, the authors demonstrate room-temperature polarization of 13C derived from optically pumped electrons of nitrogen vacancies in diamonds with arbitrary orientations.

  • High-resolution microwave detection with NV centers in diamond is currently applicable to signals with frequencies below 10 MHz, thus limiting their range of applications. Here, the authors demonstrate detection of GHz signals with sub-Hz spectral resolution, not limited by the quantum sensor lifetime.

  • Quantum sensors can have exceptional properties but the limits on their performance involve nonclassical effects such as quantum backaction. Here the authors show how to mitigate the effects of backaction on the spectral resolution of an NV centre nuclear spin sensor by controlling the measurement strength.

  • The efficiency of quantum state readout is one of the factors that determine the performance of point defects in semiconductors in practical applications. Here the authors demonstrate photo-electrical readout for silicon vacancies in silicon carbide, providing an alternative to optical detection.

  • Dissipation of the sensor is a limiting factor in metrology. Here, Pfender et al. suppress this effect employing the nuclear spin of an NV centre for robust intermediate storage of classical NMR information, allowing then to record single-spin NMR spectra with 13 Hz resolution at room temperature.

  • Nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond offer a promising platform for quantum applications but their optical and spin properties can be hampered by imperfections of the host crystal. Here, nitrogen-vacancy centers are created in high-pressure high-temperature diamond of high crystalline quality, demonstrating a small inhomogeneous broadening of the spin and optical transitions.

  • Heterodyne detection is vastly used to overcome the intrinsic electron spin lifetime limiting the spectral resolution in NMR experiments based on nitrogen vacancy platforms, but the application of this technique at high magnetic fields is yet a challenge. The authors introduce heterodyne detection method applicable at high magnetic fields.
