• Abstract: In recent years, the negatively charged group-IV--vacancy defects in diamond, labeled as G4V($-$) or G4V centers, have received a great attention in quantum information processing. In this study, we investigate the magneto-optical properties of the G4V centers under high compressive hydrostatic pressures up to 180~GPa. The spin-orbit splitting for the electronic ground and excited states and the hyperfine tensors are calculated by means of plane wave supercell density functional theory as unique fingerprints of these defects. To this end, we developed a theory for calculating the hyperfine tensors when the electronic states are subject to Jahn--Teller effect. We find that the zero-phonon-line energy increases with adding hydrostatic pressures where the coupling strength increases from SiV($-$) to PbV($-$). On the other hand, the calculated photoionization threshold energies indicate that the operation of PbV($-$) based quantum sensor is limited up to 30~GPa of hydrostatic pressure whereas SnV($-$), GeV($-$) and SiV($-$) remain photostable up to 180~GPa of hydrostatic pressure.

  We use pressure as a tuning method and a nuclear spin as an atomic scale probe to monitor the hyperfine structure of negatively charged nitrogen vacancy (NV) centers in diamonds under pressure. We show that the NV hyperfine parameters have prominent changes, resulting in an increase in the NV electron spin density and rehybridization from $sp3$ to $sp2$ bonds.

As a by-product of the technique, the electromagnetic properties of the levitated objects can also be measured on an individual basis.
