This work presents a magnetic field imaging method based on color centres in diamond crystal applied to thin film structure. To demonstrate the capacity of our device we have used it for characterization of magnetic properties in microscopic scale of Cr$_2$O$_3$ thin film structure above and below Neel temperature. The obtained measurement results clearly identify the detection of the magnetic phase transition of Cr$_2$O$_3$ thin film with an unexpected diamagnetic like behaviour at 19$^{circ}$C (below the Neel temperature of Cr$_2$O$_3$). To have better insights in the magnetic fields created by the thin films we present simulations of the magnetic fields near the thin film surface. We also analysed the optically detected magnetic resonance (ODMR) profiles to be sure that the measured property is related only to the shift of the optically detected magnetic resonance. We demonstrate how Nitrogen-Vacancy centre based magnetometry can deliver a convenient platform for research of phase transition dynamics and spatial magnetic field distributions of thin films, that can rival other widely used measurement techniques.

This work presents a magnetic field imaging method based on color centers in diamond crystal applied to a thin film of a nanolaminated Mn$_2$GaC MAX phase. Magnetic properties of the surface related structures have been described around the first ord
er transition at 214 K by performing measurements in the temperature range between 200 K and 235 K with the surface features fading out by increasing temperature above the transition temperature. The results presented here demonstrate how Nitrogen-Vacancy center based magnetic microscopy can supplement the traditionally used set of experimental techniques, giving additional information of microscopic scale magnetic field features, and allowing to investigate the temperature dependent magnetic behavior. The additional information acquired in this way is relevant to applications where surface magnetic properties are of essence.
In this work we present results acquired by applying magnetic field imaging technique based on Nitrogen-Vacancy centres in diamond crystal for characterization of magnetic thin films defects. We used the constructed wide-field magnetic microscope for
measurements of two kinds of magnetic defects in thin films. One family of defects under study was a result of non-optimal thin film growth conditions. The magnetic field maps of several regions of the thin films created under very similar conditions to previously published research revealed microscopic impurity islands of ferromagnetic defects, that potentially could disturb the magnetic properties of the surface. The second part of the measurements was dedicated to defects created post deposition - mechanical defects introduced in ferromagnetic thin films. In both cases, the measurements identify the magnetic field amplitude and distribution of the magnetic defects. In addition, the magnetic field maps were correlated with the corresponding optical images. As this method has great potential for quality control of different stages of magnetic thin film manufacturing process and it can rival other widely used measurement techniques, we also propose solutions for the optimization of the device in the perspective of high throughput.
Negatively charged nitrogen-vacancy centres in diamond are promising quantum magnetic field sensors. Laser threshold magnetometry has been a theoretical approach for the improvement of NV-centre ensemble sensitivity via increased signal strength and
magnetic field contrast. In this work we experimentally demonstrate laser threshold magnetometry. We use a macroscopic high-finesse laser cavity containing a highly NV-doped and low absorbing diamond gain medium that is pumped at 532nm and resonantly seeded at 710nm. This enables amplification of the signal power by stimulated emission of 64%. We show the magnetic-field dependency of the amplification and thus, demonstrate magnetic-field dependent stimulated emission from an NV-centre ensemble. This emission shows a record contrast of 33% and a maximum output power in the mW regime. These advantages of coherent read-out of NV-centres pave the way for novel cavity and laser applications of quantum defects as well as diamond NV magnetic field sensors with significantly improved sensitivity for the health, research and mining sectors.
Ensembles of nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamonds are widely utilized for magnetometry, magnetic-field imaging and magnetic-resonance detection. They have not been used for magnetometry at zero ambient field because Zeeman sublevels lose first-o
rder sensitivity to magnetic fields as they are mixed due to crystal strain or electric fields. In this work, we realize a zero-field (ZF) magnetometer using polarization-selective microwave excitation in a 12C-enriched HPHT crystal sample. We employ circularly polarized microwaves to address specific transitions in the optically detected magnetic resonance and perform magnetometry with a noise floor of 250 pT/Hz^(1/2). This technique opens the door to practical applications of NV sensors for ZF magnetic sensing, such as ZF nuclear magnetic resonance, and investigation of magnetic fields in biological systems.
The possibility of using Nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamonds to measure nanoscale magnetic fields with unprecedented sensitivity is one of the most significant achievements of quantum sensing. Here we present an innovative experimental set-up, showi
ng an achieved sensitivity comparable to the state of the art ODMR protocols if the sensing volume is taken into account. The apparatus allows magnetic sensing in biological samples such as individual cells, as it is characterized by a small sensing volume and full bio-compatibility. The sensitivity at different optical powers is studied to extend this technique to the intercellular scale.
