• Abstract summary: Solid-state spin defects are attractive candidates for developing quantum sensors and simulators.

• Abstract: Solid-state spin defects are attractive candidates for developing quantum sensors and simulators. The spin and charge degrees of freedom in large defect ensembles are a promising platform to explore complex many-body dynamics and the emergence of quantum hydrodynamics. However, many interesting properties can be revealed only upon changes in the density of defects, which instead is usually fixed in material systems. Increasing the interaction strength by creating denser defect ensembles also brings more decoherence. Ideally one would like to control the spin concentration at will, while keeping fixed decoherence effects. Here we show that by exploiting charge transport, we can take some first steps in this direction, while at the same time characterizing charge transport and its capture by defects. By exploiting the cycling process of ionization and recombination of NV centers in diamonds, we pump electrons from the valence band to the conduction band. These charges are then transported to modulate the spin concentration by changing the charge state of material defects. By developing a wide-field imaging setup integrated with a fast single photon detector array, we achieve a direct and efficient characterization of the charge redistribution process by measuring the complete spectrum of the spin bath with micrometer-scale spatial resolution. We demonstrate the concentration increase of the dominant spin defects by a factor of 2 while keeping the $T_2$ of the NV center, which also provides a potential experimental demonstration of the suppression of spin flip-flops via hyperfine interactions. Our work paves the way to studying many-body dynamics with temporally and spatially tunable interaction strengths in hybrid charge-spin systems.

  We investigate the occurrence of steady-state multi-stability in a cavity system containing spin-orbit coupled Bose-Einstein condensate.
