Abstract
The behavior of the magnetic field sensitivity of nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers as a function of microwave power and the inhomogeneous distribution of MW fields was systematically studied. An optimal structure for exciting spin structures by MW signals was designed using two parallel loop antennas. The volume of the homogeneous regions was approximately 42 mm3, and the associated diameter of the diamond reached up to 5.2 mm with 1016 NV sensors. Based on this structure, the detection contrast and voltage fluctuation of an optically detected magnetic resonance (ODMR) signal were optimized, and the sensitivity was improved to 5 nT/√Hz. In addition, a pulse sequence was presented to fully eliminate the MW broadening. The magnetic field sensitivity was improved by approximately one order of magnitude as the π-pulse duration was increased to its coherence time. This offers a useful way to improve the sensitivity of spin-based sensors.
