• Abstract: Microwave pulse sequences are the basis of coherent manipulation of the electronic spin ground state in nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers. In this work we demonstrate stimulated Raman transitions (SRT) and stimulated Raman adiabatic passage (STIRAP), two ways to drive the dipole-forbidden transition between two spin sublevels in the electronic triplet ground state of the NV center. This is achieved by a multitone Raman microwave pulse which simultaneously drives two detuned transitions via a virtual level for SRT or via two adiabatic and partially overlapping resonant microwave pulses for STIRAP. We lay the theoretical framework of SRT and STIRAP dynamics and verify experimentally the theoretical predictions of population inversion by observing the dipole-forbidden transition in the ground state of a single NV center. A comparison of the two schemes showed a better robustness and success of the spin swap for STIRAP as compared to SRT.

• Entanglement Generation on the Double Quantum Transition of NV Ground State Via Globally Addressing Microwave Pulse [0.0]
  Entanglement is a key quantum feature that enables quantum sensors to improve their sensitivity up to the Heisenberg limit. In the NV-center platform, the Heisenberg limit can only be achieved when the axes of the NV centers are parallel. We propose for the first time a mechanism to prepare entangled states in the double quantum transition of two dipolarly coupled NV centers.

Our findings suggest that these effects are experimentally accessible and offer a robust platform for studying quantum phase transitions in hybrid nanowires.

  Large momentum transfer (LMT) is an important technique for magnifying the phase shift accumulated in an atom interferometer. Existing approaches to implement Raman-transition-based LMT all involve physically swapping the propagation directions of the two counterpropagating Raman beams repeatedly. Here, we demonstrate a simpler approach for Raman-transition-based LMT that does not involve a physical swap of the directions of the Raman beams.

The level anti-crossing, or magnetic clock transition, associated with this gap has been directly monitored by heat capacity experiments. The comparison of these results with those obtained for a Co derivative, for which tunnelling is forbidden by symmetry, shows that the clock transition leads to an effective suppression of intermolecular spin-spin interactions.
