A sensor system is presented comprising: a plurality of sensor units arranged in a predetermined arrangement to be exposed to an electromagnetic signal to be measured, a drive unit configured for providing one or more electromagnetic drive pulses to said sensing units to thereby affect one or more selected quantum properties associated with said plurality of sensor units, and an optical detector unit configured for detecting variation in one or more optical properties of the sensor units in response to input collected electromagnetic radiation; wherein said drive unit is configured to apply the electromagnetic drive pulses having a predetermined phase function on said plurality of sensor units.

Detector array system

A method of hyperpolarisation of nuclear spins in one or more particle(s) moving relatively to a polarisation structure, wherein a polarisation of electron spins in the polarisation structure is transferred to the nuclear spins in the particle(s), wherein for one or more of the moving particle(s) within 20 nm from a surface of the polarisation structure, the correlation time of the interaction with the nearest polarisation structure electron spin due to the molecular motion is larger than the inverse of the nuclear Larmor frequency; the electron spins in the polarisation structure are polarised above thermal equilibrium; and the polarisation transfer is performed resonantly.

Method for the hyperpolarisation of nuclear spins

The invention concerns a method for the hyperpolarisation ofC nuclear spin in a diamond, comprising an optical pumping step, in which colour centre electron spins in the diamond are optically pumped. The method further comprises a transfer step in which the polarisation of a long-lived state of the colour centre electron spins is transferred toC nuclear spins in the diamond via a long-range interaction.
