TL;DR: In this paper, point defects in diamond known as nitrogen-vacancy centres have been shown to be sensitive to minute magnetic fields, even at room temperature, and a demonstration that the spin associated with these defect centres is also sensitive to electric fields holds out the prospect of a sensor that can resolve single spins and single elementary charges at the nanoscale.

TL;DR: This work experimentally demonstrates a novel nanoscale temperature sensing technique based on optically detected electron spin resonance in single atomic defects in diamonds, which should allow the measurement of the heat produced by chemical interactions involving a few or single molecules even in heterogeneous environments like cells.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate entanglement between two engineered single solid-state spin quantum bits (qubits) at ambient conditions and show that ground-state quantum correlations can be detected by quantum state tomography.

TL;DR: In this paper, a novel nanoscale temperature sensing technique based on optically detected electron spin resonance in single atomic defects in diamonds has been proposed to measure the heat produced by chemical interactions involving a few or single molecules.

TL;DR: The presented wide-field NV magnetometer offers, in addition to its high magnetic sensitivity and vector reconstruction, an unprecedented spatiotemporal resolution and functionality at room temperature.
