Nitrogen vacancy (NV) color centers in diamond form promising magnetic sensors due to stable photoluminescence (PL), optically readable spins and high coherence times even at ambient conditions. Either individual centers or ensembles of NV centers can be used; the first offering ultimate resolution down to the nanoscale [1]; the latter offering enhanced sensitivity and a gain in PL signal [2].
