Journal ArticleDOI

Carlo Bradac,Torsten Gaebel,N. Naidoo,Matthew Sellars,Jason Twamley,Louise J. Brown,Amanda S. Barnard,Taras Plakhotnik,Andrei V. Zvyagin,James R. Rabeau +9 more
TL;DR: The first direct observation of nitrogen-vacancy centres in discrete 5-nm nanodiamonds at room temperature is reported, including evidence for intermittency in the luminescence (blinking) from the nanod diamonds, and it is shown that it is possible to control this blinking by modifying the surface of the nanODiamonds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Single-molecule spectroscopy
TL;DR: A review of single-molecule spectroscopy in solids can be found in this paper, where the emphasis is on physical results and their interpretation, followed by a general introduction.
Journal ArticleDOI
All-optical thermometry and thermal properties of the optically detected spin resonances of the NV(-) center in nanodiamond.
TL;DR: A comprehensive investigation of the thermal properties of the centers' spin resonances is reported and an alternate all-optical NV(-) thermometry technique is demonstrated that exploits the temperature dependence of the center's optical Debye-Waller factor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optical Probing of Single Molecules of Terrylene in a Shpol'kii Matrix: A Two-State Single-Molecule Switch
TL;DR: In this paper, the fluorescence excitation spectra of individual impurity molecules in a new system: terrylene in a Shpol'skii matrix of hexadecan were reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Five-nanometer diamond with luminescent nitrogen-vacancy defect centers.

TL;DR: It was observed that the SNDs exhibited significant luminescence in the red spectral region before irradiation, and the absence of the zero-phonon lines at 637 and 575 nm indicated that the Luminescence did not originate from NV centers as compared with the NV spectrum.
