Abstract

AbstractWe report on experiments to detect electron spins in the molecular system N@C60 indirectly by coupling them to electron spins in diamond. The spin of single or multiple nitrogen‐vacancy (NV) centers in nano‐diamonds can be routinely measured using optically detected magnetic resonance (ODMR) in a confocal microscopy setup. Line splittings similar to those expected for coupling to external spins are sometimes seen in the ODMR spectra. Direct comparison of spectra on individual nano‐diamonds before and after coverage with fullerenes however gave no clear evidence that the spin‐spin coupling was due to N@C60.
