STED microscopy reveals crystal colour centres with nanometric resolution

Because they have spin states that can be optically polarized and detected, fluorescent nitrogen vacancies in diamond have considerable potential for applications in quantum cryptography and computation, as well as for nanoscale magnetic imaging and biolabelling. However, their optical detection and...
