Abstract
Section titled āAbstractāAbstract In this work, a time-varying pulse waveform spin readout sequence method is proposed to improve the spin readout efficiency of nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers. The method consists of performing the readout signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) analysis via the construction of a rate equation model of the NV center. We demonstrate a superior performance from the time-varying waveform readout approach and focus on the role of the readout optimization in quantum measurements. A detailed comparison of the readout SNR of the time-varying waveform and conventional waveform is provided. We experimentally demonstrate that the readout SNR is increased by 8% by utilizing an optimized waveform. It is anticipated that the improved method will effectively benefit the sensing capability of NV center ensembles and provide support for high-precision measurements of solid systems.
