[0056] The application provides a NV color center magnetic field and current measurement method, which comprises the following steps:

[0057] In step 101, an initial magnetic field signal containing environmental thermal noise is obtained, and a quantum coherence enhancement pulse sequence is constructed by using the initial magnetic field signal containing environmental thermal noise.

[0058] In the embodiment of the application, the environmental thermal noise refers to random noise generated by the thermal motion of electrons in a conductor, which widely exists in various measurement environments, and the power spectral density thereof is proportional to the absolute temperature of the environment.

[0059] The initial magnetic field signal containing environmental thermal noise refers to the acquisition of a special magnetic sensor, which is sensitive to the change of the magnetic field in the environment and can convert the magnetic field strength into an electrical signal output, but inevitably introduces environmental thermal noise interference.

(and excite fluorescence) (accomplish or Spin state flip) and ( (Introducing phase difference) Microwave pulses (which disrupt the correlation between noise and spin phase) are used to ultimately construct a QCE-Pulse sequence that fits the current noise characteristics.

[0064] It is worth mentioning that this invention integrates the technology of precise measurement of magnetic field / current of diamond NV color center by optically detected magnetic resonance (ODMR) into a systematic algorithm flow, covering the decoupling of physical quantities and the mathematical proof of Heisenberg limit approximation. The input-output logic relationship of each step in this invention is as follows:

[0065] NV centers (nitrogen-vacancy centers) are point defects in the diamond lattice formed by the substitution of carbon atoms with nitrogen atoms, accompanied by adjacent vacancies. Their ground state is a spin triplet. In a static magnetic field The following Zeeman split occurs:

[0066]

[0067] In the formula, , For Bohr magneton, The angle between the magnetic field and the NV axis; through 532 nm laser excitation and microwave resonance manipulation, the fluorescence intensity changes with the microwave frequency to form an ODMR spectrum, whose resonance frequency... ( The zero-field splitting coefficient; (electron gyromagnetic ratio); Bz represents the component of the magnetic field B along the NV color center crystal axis direction, i.e. the projection value of the magnetic field .

[0068] Step 102, the spin state of the NV color center is regulated by a quantum coherence enhancement pulse sequence, and the optical detection magnetic resonance spectrum and the time domain fluorescence intensity are determined.

[0069] In the embodiment of the present application, the NV color center, i.e. the nitrogen-vacancy color center, is a point defect formed by the substitution of a nitrogen atom for a carbon atom and the existence of a vacancy at the adjacent position in the diamond lattice, and the ground state is a spin triplet state (S=1). The Zeeman splitting occurs in the magnetic field, and the magnetic field detection can be realized through laser excitation and microwave regulation.

[0070] Spin state refers to the quantum state of the electron spin of the NV color center. In the present application, it mainly involves the ground state and the excited state , Different spin states can undergo transitions under the action of laser and microwave, and the transition process is accompanied by changes in fluorescence intensity.

[0071] Optical detection magnetic resonance spectrum (ODMR spectrum) refers to the relationship curve of fluorescence intensity with microwave frequency. The resonance peak in the spectrum corresponds to the transition of the spin state of the NV color center, and can reflect the magnetic field information.

[0072] Time domain fluorescence intensity refers to a time domain signal with discrete measurement time t as the horizontal coordinate and fluorescence intensity as the vertical coordinate.

[0073] The quantum coherence enhancement pulse sequence generated according to step 101 is used to regulate the spin state of the NV color center, i.e. the 532 nm laser pulse (typical pulse width 3 μs, power 1 mW / μm²) in the sequence is used to act on the NV color center in the diamond ensemble, so that the spin state of the NV color center is initialized to the ground state At the same time, the laser excites the NV color center to generate a fluorescence signal; then according to the sequence structure of , the X-axis phase microwave pulse ( ) and the Y-axis phase microwave pulse ( ) are alternately applied, wherein the spin state of the NV color center is flipped between or and , the phase difference of the imaginary unit i is introduced to destroy the phase correlation between the environment noise and the spin, the pulse interval τ is determined according to the noise bandwidth in the initial magnetic field signal, and the repetition number N is set to 128 times to effectively extend the coherence time of the NV color center The duration is prolonged from 10 to 100 s. In this regulation process, the fluorescence signal of the NV center is synchronously collected by a single photon counter: on the one hand, the output frequency of the microwave source (frequency range 1-4 GHz) is scanned, and the fluorescence intensity values at different microwave frequencies are recorded to form a curve of the fluorescence intensity versus the microwave frequency, that is, an optical detection magnetic resonance spectrum; on the other hand, the fluorescence intensity data at different times are recorded based on the discrete measurement time t generated by the processor clock to obtain the time-domain fluorescence intensity.

[0074] Further, step 101 comprises the following sub-steps:

[0075] S11, the spin state of the NV center is regulated by the quantum coherence enhancement pulse sequence, and when the spin state of the NV center is in the ground state, the initial fluorescence signal of the NV center is generated by laser excitation.

[0076] In the embodiment of the application, the ground state refers to the stable state with the lowest electron spin energy of the NV center, denoted as , which is the initial target state regulated by the quantum coherence enhancement pulse sequence, and the NV center in the ground state can generate a fluorescence signal after laser excitation.

[0077] The initial fluorescence signal refers to the initial optical signal formed when the NV center transitions from the excited state to the ground state under laser excitation, and its intensity is related to the spin state of the NV center, the laser power and the environmental noise.

[0078] The 532 nm laser pulse (typical pulse width 3 s, power 1 mW / m2) in the sequence acts on the NV center in the diamond ensemble, and the spin state of the NV center is initialized to the ground state , and the laser excitation of the NV center generates a fluorescence signal, that is, an initial fluorescence signal.

[0079] S12, a plurality of microwave pulses of different frequencies are applied to the NV center within a preset pulse interval time to obtain a target microwave frequency point.

[0080] In the embodiment of the application, the preset pulse interval time (τ) refers to the fixed time interval between the adjacent two microwave π pulses (π ) and (π ) in the quantum coherence enhancement pulse sequence, which needs to be calculated and determined according to the environmental magnetic field noise bandwidth, and the core function is to adapt to the noise spectrum to suppress interference and prolong the effective coherence time of the NV center.

[0081] The target microwave frequency point refers to the frequency value when the microwave pulse frequency matches the resonance frequency (f ) of the NV center, at which time the fluorescence intensity of the NV center decreases significantly.

[0082] In a preset pulse interval time τ, a microwave source with a frequency range of 1-4 GHz and a Q value of >200 is used to apply microwave pulses covering the ODMR resonance frequency interval to the NV center in the diamond ensemble, and the microwave pulses contain microwave pulses ( ) and microwave pulses ( ); at the same time, the fluorescence intensity change of the NV center is synchronously collected by a single photon counter (efficiency >80%), when the microwave pulse frequency matches the resonance frequency of the NV center , D≈2.87GHz is the zero-field splitting coefficient, is the component of the magnetic field B along the NV center crystal axis), the spin state transition probability of the NV center is significantly improved, and the fluorescence intensity will decrease obviously, and the corresponding microwave frequency is the target microwave frequency point.

[0083] S13, in the regulation period of each target microwave frequency point, the ODMR spectrum is collected.

[0084] In the embodiment of the present application, the regulation period refers to the complete time period of "laser initialization-microwave pulse control-fluorescence collection" for a single target microwave frequency point. In the present application, one regulation period corresponds to N=128 pulse cycles of the quantum coherence enhancement pulse sequence, which ensures that noise can be sufficiently suppressed and stable fluorescence signals can be obtained.

[0085] The regulation period of each target microwave frequency point needs to be synchronized with the pulse repetition rhythm of the quantum coherence enhancement pulse sequence, that is, one regulation period corresponds to N times (N=128 times) of pulse cycles, and the preset pulse interval time τ in the period is still determined according to the environmental magnetic field noise bandwidth in the initial magnetic field signal According to the formula ( is the electronic gyromagnetic ratio, is the environmental magnetic field noise bandwidth, is the noise spectrum fitting parameter); in the regulation period, the NV center spin state is first initialized to the ground state by a 532 nm laser pulse (pulse width 3μs, power 1 mW / μm²) and excited to fluorescence, and then the frequency of the target microwave frequency point is output and Microwave pulse, alternating effect on NV color center to maintain its spin coherence, inhibit environmental noise interference; at the same time, using the single photon counter with efficiency > 80% continuously collect the fluorescence intensity data of NV color center in this period, record the change rule of fluorescence intensity with time, then the average value of fluorescence intensity corresponding to the target microwave frequency point is associated with the fluorescence intensity data of other microwave frequency points scanned in the early stage, form the corresponding relationship curve of "microwave frequency-fluorescence intensity", that is, complete the data acquisition of ODMR spectrum of light detection in the control period of the target microwave frequency point . .

[0086] S14, integrate the initial fluorescence signal of each spatial pixel point in the control period of the target microwave frequency point to obtain the total fluorescence integral intensity of each spatial pixel point.

[0087] In the embodiment of the application, the spatial pixel point refers to the smallest spatial unit divided when the nanodiamond probe scans the to-be-measured region, and the total number of pixels P is determined by the scanning step (such as 256*256), and each pixel point corresponds to a micro spatial position of the to-be-measured region.

[0088] The total fluorescence integral intensity refers to the intensity value obtained by time-domain integration of the initial fluorescence signal of a single spatial pixel point in the control period of the target microwave frequency point.

[0089] For each spatial pixel point covered by the nanodiamond probe, the initial fluorescence signal generated by the NV color center excited by the 532 nm laser is collected in real time in the control period of the corresponding target microwave frequency point through the single photon counter; then the discrete measurement time t generated by the processor clock is taken as the integration interval (the integration time is synchronized with the control period), and the time-domain integration operation is performed on the initial fluorescence signal of each spatial pixel point in the period, that is, the fluorescence intensity values at different times are accumulated, the influence of transient noise on the signal is eliminated, and finally the total fluorescence integral intensity of each spatial pixel point under the target microwave frequency point is obtained.

[0090] S15, calculate the sum of the total fluorescence integral intensity of all spatial pixel points to generate the time-domain fluorescence intensity.

[0091] In the embodiment of the present application, the measured time t generated by the processor clock is taken as the reference, and a plurality of continuous time units are divided according to preset time intervals (synchronized with the operation rhythm of the pulse sequence), each time unit corresponding to a complete "full space pixel signal acquisition-total fluorescence integral intensity calculation" process; then, in each time unit, the total fluorescence integral intensity of all spatial pixels is summed to obtain the fluorescence intensity sum corresponding to the time unit; and then the fluorescence intensity sums of different time units are arranged in chronological order to form a time-domain signal with the measured time t as the horizontal coordinate and the total fluorescence intensity of the full space as the vertical coordinate, that is, to generate the time-domain fluorescence intensity.

[0092] It is worth mentioning that the time-domain signal integral intensity of each spatial pixel (P points) forms a fluorescence intensity matrix , .

[0093] Further, the method further includes the following sub-steps:

[0094] S21, when the quantum coherence enhancement pulse sequence controls the spin state of the NV center, the preset pulse interval time, the pulse repetition number and the intrinsic decoherence time are obtained.

[0095] In the embodiment of the present application, the pulse repetition number refers to the cycle number of the quantum coherence enhancement pulse sequence unit.

[0096] The intrinsic decoherence time refers to the characteristic time of the natural decay of the NV center spin state coherence due to environmental disturbance (such as lattice vibration, spin-spin interaction) without active control (such as without microwave pulse intervention).

[0097] When the quantum coherence enhancement pulse sequence controls the spin state of the NV center in the diamond ensemble, first, the environmental magnetic field noise bandwidth extracted from the initial magnetic field signal is calculated and obtained according to the formula to obtain the preset pulse interval time , which needs to be accurately matched with the noise spectrum to weaken the environmental disturbance; then, according to the requirement of improving the effective coherence time of the NV center, the pulse repetition number N is set and obtained, N = 128 times in the present application, and through the pulse cycle of this number, the effective coherence time of the NV center can be extended from < 10 μs to ≈ 100 μs; at the same time, in the process of pulse sequence control, the natural decay process of the NV center spin state coherence is monitored, that is, the decay curve of the initial fluorescence signal with time is recorded, and the intrinsic decoherence time of the NV center is obtained through the inversion calculation combined with the fluorescence response function.

[0098] S22. Determine the effective decoherence time of the NV color center based on the preset pulse interval time, pulse repetition number, and intrinsic decoherence time.

[0099] In this embodiment of the invention, the effective decoherence time refers to the actual time during which the spin state maintains coherence after being modulated by the quantum coherence enhancement pulse sequence of the NV color center. It is a comprehensive reflection of the intrinsic decoherence time and the effect of pulse sequence modulation.

[0100] Specifically, the original decoherence time limit is:

[0101] The free induction decay (FID) time of NV color centers is determined by environmental noise (magnetic field noise, lattice vibration, etc.), with a typical value of <10 μs.

[0102] ;

[0103] In the formula, This refers to the intrinsic decoherence time (related to diamond purity, typically >1 ms). The ambient magnetic field noise amplitude (approximately 1 μT / √Hz); It is the electron gyromagnetic ratio.

[0104] In this invention, the effective decoherence time can be extended by using a quantum coherence enhancement pulse (QCE-Pulse) after suppression by the QCE-Pulse sequence. The specific calculation formula is as follows:

[0105]

[0106] In the formula, N is the number of pulse repetitions; The preset pulse interval time; This refers to the relevant time for the collection and withdrawal of taxes.

[0107] S23. Based on the effective decoherence time of the NV color center, adjust the initial acquisition sensitivity of the photodetector magnetic resonance spectrum and time-domain fluorescence intensity to generate the target acquisition sensitivity.

[0108] In this embodiment of the invention, the initial acquisition sensitivity refers to the original sensitivity of detectable magnetic field changes before optimization by incorporating effective decoherence time.

[0109] Target acquisition sensitivity refers to the optimal sensitivity for detecting changes in the magnetic field achieved after adjusting the acquisition parameters in conjunction with the effective decoherence time.

[0110] It can improve magnetic field sensitivity (i.e., acquisition sensitivity):

[0111] Magnetic field sensitivity defined as the minimum detectable magnetic field change (unit: T / √Hz), whose theoretical limit is:

[0112]

[0113] where, is the fluorescence photon collection rate (related to NV density, optical efficiency) ; is the total measurement time; is the electron gyromagnetic ratio.

[0114] And the magnetic field sensitivity is improved with the increase of , which is specifically manifested as:

[0116]

[0117] QCE-Pulse after optimization ( ) :

[0118]

[0119] According to the increase of , the magnetic field sensitivity is improved by 10 times (corresponding to 14 dB signal-to-noise ratio gain).

[0120] Compared with the theoretical Heisenberg limit , the optimized is closer.

[0121] Further, the method further includes the following sub-steps:

[0122] S31, acquiring the measurement time, the electron gyromagnetic ratio, the temperature disturbance value, and the angle between the magnetic field corresponding to the initial magnetic field signal containing the environmental thermal noise and the axial direction of the NV color center.

[0123] In the embodiment of the present application, the measurement time refers to a discrete digital time signal for recording the change of the NV color center signal, which is generated by a processor clock and needs to be synchronized with the control period of the quantum coherence enhancement pulse sequence.
