Abstract
Ensembles of nitrogen-vacancy color centers in diamond hold promise
for ultra-precise
magnetometery, competing with superconducting quantum interference device
detectors. By utilizing the advantages of dielectric materials, such as
very low losses for
electromagnetic field, with the potential for creating high-quality factor
resonators with
strong concentration of the field within it, we implemented a dielectric
resonator antenna for
coherent manipulation of a large ensemble of nitrogen-vacancy
centers in diamond. We reached average
Rabi frequency of 10 MHz in a volume of 7 mm3 with a
standard deviation of
less than 1 % at a moderate pump power. The obtained result enables use of
large volume low nitrogen-vacancy concentration diamond plates in modern
nitrogen-vacancy magnetometers thus improving sensitivity
via larger coherence time and higher optical detected magnetic resonance contrast.
