Coherence of nitrogen-vacancy electronic spin ensembles in diamond

We present an experimental and theoretical study of electronic spin decoherence in ensembles of nitrogen-vacancy (NV) color centers in bulk high-purity diamond at room temperature. Under appropriate conditions, we find ensemble NV spin coherence times (T[superscript 2]) comparable to that of single...
