In this study, we report a conceptually novel broadband high-frequency electron spin resonance (HFESR) spectroscopic technique. In contrast to the ordinary force-detected ESR technique, which detects the magnetization change due to the saturation effect, this method measures the magnetization change due to the change of the sample temperature at resonance. To demonstrate its principle, we developed a silicon nitride nanomembrane-based force-detected ESR spectrometer, which can be stably operated even at high magnetic fields. Test measurements were performed for samples with different spin relaxation times. We succeeded in obtaining a seamless ESR spectrum in magnetic fields of 15~T and frequencies of 636~GHz without significant spectral distortion. A high spin sensitivity of $10^{12}$~spins/G$cdot$s was obtained, which was independent of the spin relaxation time. These results show that this technique can be used as a practical method in research fields where the HFESR technique is applicable.

We report electron spin resonance measurements of donors in silicon at millikelvin temperatures using a superconducting $LC$ planar micro-resonator and a Josephson Parametric Amplifier. The resonator includes a nanowire inductor, defining a femtolite r detection volume. Due to strain in the substrate, the donor resonance lines are heavily broadened. Single-spin to photon coupling strengths up to $sim 3~text{kHz}$ are observed. The single shot sensitivity is $120 pm 24~$spins/Hahn echo, corresponding to $approx 12 pm 3$~spins$/sqrt{text{Hz}}$ for repeated acquisition.
We use micromagnetic simulation to demonstrate layer-selective detection of magnetization directions from magnetic dots having two recording layers by using a spin-torque oscillator (STO) as a read device. This method is based on ferromagnetic resona nce (FMR) excitation of recording-layer magnetizations by the microwave field from the STO. The FMR excitation affects the oscillation of the STO, which is utilized to sense the magnetization states in a recording layer. The recording layers are designed to have different FMR frequencies so that the FMR excitation is selectively induced by tuning the oscillation frequency of the STO. Since all magnetic layers interact with each other through dipolar fields, unnecessary interlayer interferences can occur, which are suppressed by designing magnetic properties of the layers. We move the STO over the magnetic dots, which models a read head moving over recording media, and show that changes in the STO oscillation occur on the one-nanosecond timescale.

A new method for detecting the magnetic resonance of electronic spins at low temperature is demonstrated. It consists in measuring the signal emitted by the spins with a superconducting qubit that acts as a single-microwave-photon detector, resulting in an enhanced sensitivity. We implement this new type of electron-spin resonance spectroscopy using a hybrid quantum circuit in which a transmon qubit is coupled to a spin ensemble consisting of NV centers in diamond. With this setup we measure the NV center absorption spectrum at 30mK at an excitation level of thicksim15,mu_{B} out of an ensemble of 10^{11} spins.
Hybrid systems consisting of a quantum emitter coupled to a mechanical oscillator are receiving increasing attention for fundamental science and potential applications in quantum technologies. In contrast to most of the presented works, in which the oscillator eigenfrequencies are irreversibly determined by the fabrication process, we present here a simple approach to obtain frequency-tunable mechanical resonators based on suspended nanomembranes. The method relies on a micromachined piezoelectric actuator, which we use both to drive resonant oscillations of a suspended Ga(Al)As membrane with embedded quantum dots and to fine tune their mechanical eigenfrequencies. Specifically, we excite oscillations with frequencies of at least 60 MHz by applying an AC voltage to the actuator and tune the eigenfrequencies by at least 25 times their linewidth by continuously varying the elastic stress state in the membranes through a DC voltage. The light emitted by optically excited quantum dots is used as sensitive local strain gauge to monitor the oscillation frequency and amplitude. We expect that our method has the potential to be applicable to other optomechanical systems based on dielectric and semiconductor membranes possibly operating in the quantum regime.
We report the nanoscale spin detection and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectrum of copper (Cu$^{2+}$) ions via double electron-electron resonance with single spins in diamond at room temperature and low magnetic fields. We measure unexpecte dly narrow EPR resonances with linewidths $sim 2-3$ MHz from copper-chloride molecules dissolved in poly-lysine. We also observe coherent Rabi oscillations and hyperfine splitting from single Cu$^{2+}$ ions, which could be used for dynamic nuclear spin polarization and higher sensitivity of spin detection. We interpret and analyze these observations using both spin hamiltonian modeling of the copper-chloride molecules and numerical simulations of the predicted DEER response, and obtain a sensing volume $sim (250 text{nm})^3$. This work will open the door for copper-labeled EPR measurements under ambient conditions in bio-molecules and nano-materials.
