• Abstract: The nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center in diamond has been developed as a promising platform for quantum sensing, especially for magnetic field measurements in the nano-tesla range with a nanometer resolution. Optical spin readout performance has a direct effect on the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of experiments. In this work, we introduce an online optimization method to customize the laser waveform for readout. Both simulations and experiments reveal that our new scheme optimizes the optically detected magnetic resonance in NV center. The SNR of optical spin readout has been witnessed a 44.1% increase in experiments. In addition, we applied the scheme to the Rabi oscillation experiment, which shows an improvement of 46.0% in contrast and a reduction of 12.1% in mean deviation compared to traditional constant laser power SNR optimization. This scheme is promising to improve sensitivities for a wide range of NV-based applications in the future.

  The electronic spin of the nitrogen-vacancy center in diamond is a promising quantum sensor for detecting nanoscopic magnetic and electric fields. Here, we address the challenge of the poor signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of prevalent optical spin-readout techniques. We optimize the structure in simulation, observing an increase in collection efficiency for tall ($geq$ 5 $mu$m) pillars with tapered sidewalls. An optimized device yields increased SNR, owing to improvements in collimation and directionality of emission.
