- Abstract summary: We present a method for deploying ZF-ESR spectroscopy at the nanoscale by using a highly sensitive quantum sensor, the nitrogen-vacancy center in diamond.
We also measure the nanoscale ZF-ESR spectrum of a few P1 centers in diamond, and show that the hyperfine coupling constant can be directly extracted from the spectrum.

- Abstract: Electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy has broad applications in physics,
chemistry and biology. As a complementary tool, zero-field ESR (ZF-ESR)
spectroscopy has been proposed for decades and shown its own benefits for
investigating the electron fine and hyperfine interaction. However, the ZF-ESR
method has been rarely used due to the low sensitivity and the requirement of
much larger samples than conventional ESR. In this work, we present a method
for deploying ZF-ESR spectroscopy at the nanoscale by using a highly sensitive
quantum sensor, the nitrogen-vacancy center in diamond. We also measure the
nanoscale ZF-ESR spectrum of a few P1 centers in diamond, and show that the
hyperfine coupling constant can be directly extracted from the spectrum. This
method opens the door to practical applications of ZF-ESR spectroscopy, such as
investigation of the structure and polarity information in spin-modified
organic and biological systems.

Laser-written waveguides in diamond promote NV$-$ creation and improve their coupling to light but at the same time induce strain in the crystal.
We probe NV$-$ spin states experimentally with the commonly used zero-field optically detected magnetic resonance (ODMR)
In our waveguides, the ODMR spectra are shifted, split, and consistently asymmetric, which we attribute to the impact of local strain.

Magnetic field effects (MFE) in certain chemical reactions have been well established in the last five decades.
We employ elaborate and realistic models of radical-pairs, considering its coupling to the local spin environment and the sensor.
For two model systems, we derive signals of MFE detectable even in the weak coupling regime between radical-pair and NV quantum sensor.

Speed enhancement is usually achieved by optimizing the geometry of the electromagnetic cavity.
We show that the geometry of the ferromagnet plays also an important role, by setting the fundamental frequency of the magnonic resonator.

We investigate the use of a split-ring resonator incorporated with an atomic-vapor cell to improve sensitivity and the minimal detectable electric field of Rydberg atom-based sensors.
By combining EIT with a heterodyne Rydberg atom-based mixer approach, the SRR allows for the a sensitivity of 5.5$mu$V/m$sqrtrm Hz$, which is two-orders of magnitude improvement in sensitivity than when the SRR is not used.

We demonstrate that spectra can be acquired at low field using a novel pulse sequence called spin-lock induced crossing (SLIC)
This probes energy level crossings induced by a weak spin-locking pulse and produces a unique J-coupling spectrum for most organic molecules.
We performed SLIC spectroscopy on a number of small molecules at 276 kHz and 20.8 MHZ, and we show that SLIC spectra can be simulated in good agreement with measurements.
