Measuring mechanical motion with a single spin
We study theoretically the measurement of a mechanical oscillator using a single two-level system as a detector. In a recent experiment, we used a single electronic spin associated with a nitrogen–vacancy center in diamond to probe the thermal motion of a magnetized cantilever at room temperature (K...
