Diamond Surfaces with Lateral Gradients for Systematic Optimization of Surface Chemistry for Relaxometry - a Low-Pressure Plasma-Based Approach

Diamond is increasingly popular because of its unique material properties. Diamond defects called nitrogen vacancy (NV) centers allow for measurements with unprecedented sensitivity. However, to achieve ideal sensing performance, NV centers need to be with ...

Fast, Broad-Band Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy with Diamond Widefield Relaxometry

Hoda Shirzad, Mayeul Sylvain Chipaux

We present an alternative to conventional Electron the use of bulky magnets and magnetron equipment, we use the photoluminescence of an ensemble of Nitrogen-Vacancy centers at the surface of a diamond. Monitoring their relaxation time (or T1), we detected ...

Dynamical nuclear polarization for dissipation-induced entanglement in NV centers

Géraldine Haack, Shishir Khandelwal, Mayeul Sylvain Chipaux, Shashwat Kumar

We propose a practical implementation of a two-qubit entanglement engine which denotes a scheme to generate quantum correlations through purely dissipative processes. On a diamond platform, the electron spin transitions of two nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers ...

Optimizing Data Processing for Nanodiamond Based Relaxometry

Mayeul Sylvain Chipaux

The nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center in diamond is a powerful and versatile quantum sensor for diverse quantities. In particular, relaxometry (or T1), can be used to detect magnetic noise at the nanoscale. For experiments with single NV centers the analysis of ...

Detecting the metabolism of individual yeast mutant strain cells when aged, stressed or treated with antioxidants with diamond magnetometry

Mayeul Sylvain Chipaux

Free radicals play a key role in the ageing process. However, free radicals are small, reactive and short lived and thus challenging to measure. We utilize a new technique called diamond magnetometry for this pur-pose. We make use of nitrogen vacancy cente ...

Optically detected magnetic resonance with an open source platform

Christophe Marcel Georges Galland, Hossein Babashah, Hoda Shirzad, Mayeul Sylvain Chipaux, Elena Losero

Localized electronic spins in solid-state environments form versatile and robust platforms for quantum sensing, metrology and quantum information processing. With optically detected magnetic resonance (ODMR), it is possible to prepare and readout highly co ...

Quantum Sensing of Free Radicals in Primary Human Dendritic Cells

Mayeul Sylvain Chipaux

Free radicals are crucial indicators for stress and appear in all kinds of pathogenic conditions, including cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and infection. However, they are difficult to detect due to their reactivity and low abundance. We use relaxometry ...

Single-Particle Tracking and Trajectory Analysis of Fluorescent Nanodiamonds in Cell-Free Environment and Live Cells

Mayeul Sylvain Chipaux

Diamond magnetometry can provide new insights on the production of free radicals inside live cells due to its high sensitivity and spatial resolution. However, the measurements often lack intracellular context for the recorded signal. In this paper, the po ...

Optical properties of SiV and GeV color centers in nanodiamonds under hydrostatic pressures up to 180 GPa

Mayeul Sylvain Chipaux

We investigate the optical properties of silicon-vacancy (SiV) and germanium-vacancy (GeV) color centers in nanodiamonds under hydrostatic pressure up to 180 GPa. The nanodiamonds were synthesized by Si-or Ge-doped plasma-assisted chemical vapor deposition ...

Diamond-Based Nanoscale Quantum Relaxometry for Sensing Free Radical Production in Cells

Hoda Shirzad, Mayeul Sylvain Chipaux

Diamond magnetometry makes use of fluorescent defects in diamonds to convert magnetic resonance signals into fluorescence. Because optical photons can be detected much more sensitively, this technique currently holds several sensitivity world records for r ...

Nanodiamond Relaxometry-Based Detection of Free-Radical Species When Produced in Chemical Reactions in Biologically Relevant Conditions

Mayeul Sylvain Chipaux

Diamond magnetometry is a quantum sensing method involving detection of magnetic resonances with nanoscale resolution. For instance, T1 relaxation measurements, inspired by equivalent concepts in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), provide a signal that is e ...

Combined synchrotron x-ray diffraction and NV diamond magnetic microscopy measurements at high pressure

Charles Michel Henri Pépin, Margarita Lesik Gaussens, Mayeul Sylvain Chipaux

We report the possibility to simultaneously perform wide-field nitrogen-vacancy (NV) diamond magnetic microscopy and synchrotron x-ray diffraction measurements at high pressure. NV color centers are created on the culet of a diamond anvil which is integrat ...
