Abstract summary: We present a new magnetometry method integrating an ensemble of nitrogen-vacancy centers in a single-crystal diamond. The NV-center spin resonance frequency is tracked using a closed-loop frequency locked technique with fast frequency hopping to achieve a 10 kHz measurement bandwidth. This technique exhibits an extended dynamic range subjected to the working bandwidth of the microwave source.

Abstract: We present a new magnetometry method integrating an ensemble of nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in a single-crystal diamond with an extended dynamic range for monitoring the fast changing magnetic-field. The NV-center spin resonance frequency is tracked using a closed-loop frequency locked technique with fast frequency hopping to achieve a 10 kHz measurement bandwidth, thus, allowing for the detection of fast changing magnetic signals up to 0.723 T/s.This technique exhibits an extended dynamic range subjected to the working bandwidth of the microwave source. This extended dynamic range can reach up to 4.3 mT, which is 86 times broader than the intrinsic dynamic range. The essential components for NV spin control and signal processing such as signal generation, microwave frequency control, data processing and readout are integrated in a board-level system. With this platform, we demonstrate broadband magnetometry with an optimized sensitivity of 4.2 nT-Hz-1/2. This magnetometry method has the potential to be implemented in a multichannel frequency locked vector magnetometer suitable for a wide range of practical applications such as magnetocardiography and high-precision current sensors.

Quantum magnetometry of transient signals with a time resolution of 1.1 nanoseconds [0.0]
Quantum magnetometers based on spin defects in solids enable sensitive imaging of various magnetic phenomena, such as ferro- and antiferromagnetism, superconductivity, and current-induced fields. Here, we report detection of fast signal transients, providing a perspective for investigating the rich dynamics of magnetic systems. We experimentally demonstrate our technique using a single nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center magnetometer at room temperature, reaching a best-effort time resolution of 1.1 ns, an instantaneous bandwidth of 0.9 GHz, and a time-of-flight precision better than 20 ps.

Universal and robust dynamic decoupling controls for zero-field magnetometry by using molecular clock sensors [0.0]
Color centers in diamond and silicon carbide (SiC) and molecular spins through a host matrix control are promising for nanoscale quantum sensing. However, large transverse zero-field splitting (ZFS) is often inevitable due to their intrinsic symmetry and/or the high local strains of the host matrix. We address this challenge by employing a combination of radio-frequency (RF) field driving along the orientation and microwave (MW) dynamic pulse sequences.

Fiber-coupled Diamond Magnetometry with an Unshielded 30 pT/$\sqrt{\textrm{Hz}}$ Sensitivity [0.0]
We present a fiber-coupled NVC magnetometer with an unshielded sensitivity of (30 $pm$ 10) pT/$sqrttextrmHz$ in a (10 - 500)-Hz frequency range. This sensitivity is enabled by a relatively high green-to-red photon conversion efficiency, the use of a [100] bias field alignment, microwave and lock-in amplifier (LIA) parameter optimisation, as well as a balanced hyperfine excitation scheme. The magnetometer is capable of detecting signals from sources such as a vacuum pump up to 2 m away, with
