The construction of the microscope and a continuous straintuning sample holder are discussed. An optically detected magnetic resonance protocol utilized in the imaging is described.In order to show the reliability of this microscope, the strain conduction is estimated with finite element simulation, and xray diffraction is required for calibration when freestanding crystal films are under consideration. A magnetic imaging result is displayed to demonstrate the nano-scale imaging capability. The microscope presented in this work is helpful in studying strain-coupled magnetic physics such as magnetic phase transition under strain and strain-tuned cycloidal orientation tilting.展开更多

However, the large size of sensor and the extreme measurement conditions required strongly limit their application. It remains a challenge to reconstruct the vector of a.c. field with nanoscale spatial resolution using a single spin under ambient conditions. In this work, we choose the radio-frequency(RF) field as a typical case and realize the measurement of RF field based on a nitrogen-vacancy(NV)center in diamond. We build a solid sensor through measuring the effect of RF field on NV electron spin energy levels and the transition between them. Both of the phase and amplitude(including the transverse and longitudinal components) are measured by this new approach.展开更多
