Recently, there has been much interest in the electronic spin of the NV− center in levitating diamonds. This interest is partly motivated by proposals for hybrid optomechanics, and implications in ultrahigh force sensitivity where the NV center’s spin response to magnetic fields is exploited to read-out the motion of the diamond with high spatial resolution under ambient conditions. Amongst the many levitation schemes, optical traps are the most widely used. They provide efficient localisation for neutral and charged particles and can work under liquid or atmospheric environnements. However the trap light that is scattered from the object means that excessive heating can be at work. Pour plus d'informations, merci de contacter Dréau A. |
