【Abstract】
Recently, color centers in diamonds, called NV centers, have been attracting attention as quantum sensors with high sensitivity and high spatial nanoscale resolution. In NV centers, a single center can be optically observed at room temperature, and the spin of the NV center can be controlled and detected. The spin has an exceptionally long spin coherence time as spins in solids, and this characteristic makes it possible to apply it to highly sensitive quantum sensors. In addition, it has been shown that magnetic fields, electric fields, temperature, pressure, pH, etc., can be measured with high sensitivity, it is expected to be applied in a wide range of fields. In addition, since a single NV center can be measured, high spatial resolution at the nanometer level can be achieved. In the presentation, I will introduce some applications of diamond quantum sensors and expectations in the field of life science.
