Abstract
A magnetometer includes an electron spin defect body including a plurality of lattice point defects. A microwave field transmitter is operable to apply a microwave field to the electron spin defect body. An optical source is configured to emit input light of a first wavelength that excites the plurality of lattice point defects of the electron spin defect body from a ground state to an excited state. A first optical fiber has an input end optically coupled to the optical source and an output end. The output end is attached to a first face of the electron spin defect body and is arranged to direct the input light into the first face of the electron spin defect body. A second optical fiber has an output end and an input end. A photodetector is optically coupled to the output end of the second optical fiber.
