We theoretically analyze the ratio between the fluctuation of particle's displacement caused by spins in magnetic field and caused by molecular collisions of the residual air. When the ratio is larger than unity, the displacement fluctuation of spins flipping can be remarkably detected. By theoretical analysis and numerical simulation, we propose and validate a scheme for the detection of gradient of the magnetic field by levitating ferromagnetic nano-particle, and also put forward a realizable detection scheme of the single spin by levitating nano-diamond particle with single nitrogen-vacancy(NV) centers.展开更多
