Abstract
Section titled āAbstractāThis contribution highlights and compares some recent achievements in the use of k-space and real space imaging (scanning probe and wide-filed microscope techniques), when applied to a luminescent color center in diamond, known as nitrogen vacancy (NV) center. These techniques combined with the optically detected magnetic resonance of NV, provide a unique platform to achieve nanometric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) resolution of nearby nuclear spins (known as nanoMRI), and nanometric NV real space localization. ā¢Atomic size optically detectable spin probe.ā¢High magnetic field sensitivity and nanometric resolution.ā¢Non-invasive mapping of functional activity in neuronal networks.
