Nanoscale nuclear magnetic resonance with a 1.9-nm-deep nitrogen-vacancy sensor

We present nanoscale nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) measurements performed with
nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers located down to about 2 nm from the diamond surface. NV centers
were created by shallow ion implantation followed by a slow, nanometer-by-nanometer removal of
diamond material using oxidative etching in air. The close proximity of NV centers to the surface
yielded large 1H NMR signals of up to 3.4 lT-rms, corresponding to ~330 statistically polarized or
~10 fully polarized proton spins in a (1.8 nm)3 detection volume.
