SUMMARY:Magnetic Resonance with Single Nuclear-Spin Sensitivity
DESCRIPTION:Featuring Alex Sushkov\, Harvard University\n\nPart of the Biop
	hysics/Condensed Matter Seminar Series.\n\nAbstract:\nOur method of nanosca
	le magnetic sensing and imaging makes use of nitrogen-vacancy (NV) color ce
	nters a few nanometers below the surface of a diamond crystal. Using indivi
	dual NV centers\, we perform NMR experiments on single protein molecules\, 
	labeled with carbon-13 and deuterium isotopes. In order to achieve single n
	uclear-spin sensitivity\, we use isolated electronic-spin quantum bits (qub
	its)\, that are present of the diamond surface\, as magnetic resonance "rep
	orters". Their quantum state is coherently manipulated and measured optical
	ly via a proximal NV center. This system is used for sensing\, coherent cou
	pling\, and imaging of individual proton spins on the diamond surface with 
	angstrom resolution. Our approach may enable magnetic structural imaging of
	 individual complex molecules\, and realizes a new platform for probing nov
	el materials\, and manipulation of interacting spin systems.
