Abstract
Section titled āAbstractāSpin coherence time, T2*, of the silicon vacancy color center in diamond is limited by thermal phonons existing in the lattice. We show how this process can be engineered by applying static strain using a micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) fabricated on diamond. By suppressing the relevant thermal process, we demonstrate the improvement of spin T2*.
