Optically active spin defects are promising candidates for solid-state quantum information and sensing applications. To use these defects in quantum applications coherent manipulation of their spin state is required. Here, we realize coherent control of ensembles of boron vacancy centers in hexagonal boron nitride (hBN). Specifically, by applying pulsed spin resonance protocols, we measure a spin-lattice relaxation time of 18 microseconds and a spin coherence time of 2 microseconds at room temperature. The spin-lattice relaxation time increases by three orders of magnitude at cryogenic temperature. By applying a method to decouple the spin state from its inhomogeneous nuclear environment the optically detected magnetic resonance linewidth is substantially reduced to several tens of kilohertz. Our results are important for the employment of van der Waals materials for quantum technologies, specifically in the context of high resolution quantum sensing of two-dimensional heterostructures, nanoscale devices, and emerging atomically thin magnets.

Abstract The spin-lattice relaxation time T1 of 23Na-NMR in a dehydrated Na-X zeolite has been measured from 20 to 300 K. The recovery curve is not single-exponential at all measured temperatures and T1-1 increases with the square of temperature around room temperature. The results are analyzed by assuming non-equivalent sites and by applying the theory of the Raman process based on covalency.

AbstractThe 1H spin-lattice relaxation time (T1) in solid (CD3)3CNH3Cl and (CD3)3CNH3Br was measured above room temperature and the motional parameters for the reorientation of the NH3+ groups were determined. The 1H NMR absorptions measured in the same temperature range for (CH3)3CNH3Cl and (CH3)3CNH3Br indicate the presence of superimposed several cationic motions commonly taking place in both compounds. From X-ray powder patterns taken at room temperature, the bromide was found to be isomorphous with the chloride

Abstract Three 35Cl NQR frequencies were observed for (Me2NH2)2ZnCl4 at room temperature, indicating the existence of three crystallographically nonequivalent chlorines in the crystal. With decreasing temperature, the frequency of the lines increased almost linearly and disappeared below ca. 220 K near the reported phase transition temperature (ca. 215 K) detected on cooling. The three NQR lines faded out above room temperature because of the occurrence of rapid anionic reorientational motions disclosed from measurements of the 35Cl NQR spin-lattice relaxation time.

ABSTRACTNMR data are presented for reactively sputtered amorphous silicon-hydrogen alloys (a-Si(H)). Measured differences in two of the samples are attributed to two distinct morphologies: a mixed phase (monohydride and dihydride) and a purely monohydride composition. Features of the mixed phase morphology have been modeled. Room temperature, 35 MHz spin-lattice relaxation times are presented for a series of monohydride samples prepared with systematically varied sputtering parameters. A correlation of proton T1 with the density of ESR states tentatively is suggested.

Quadrupolar Relaxation

AbstractThe temperature dependence of the spin-lattice relaxation time T1 for the Re NQR in KReO4 , NH4ReO4 and ND4ReO4 has been measured between 77 K and 323 K. The relaxation is electric quadrupolar in all cases, and because of the large quadrupole moment of Re, T1 is short. In KReO4 T1 follows a T2 dependence. In NH4ReO4 , T1 decreases more rapidly than T-2 above about 100 K; between 170 K and 250 K T1 is smaller than 100 (is and could not be measured, but above 250 K, T1 increases to about 140 μs, and the measured data near room temperature lie close to the T-2 extrapolation from the T1 values below 100 K. These results are interpreted as normal anharmonic Raman quadrupolar relaxation, with a T-2 dependence on temperature, combined with an additional relaxation process due to switching of the ammonium ion between two possible orientations.

Temperature Dependences

Abstract The temperature dependence of the spin-lattice relaxation time (T1H) of 1H NMR measured in tetramethylammonium hexachloroplumbate(IV), (Me4N)2[PbCl6], showed a deep and a shallow minimum near 190 and 115 K, respectively. Since the presence of two kinds of crystallographically nonequivalent cations in the room-temperature Fd 3c unit cell has been reported, the deep T1H minimum was assigned to the overall reorientation of three quarters of the Me4N+ ions and the shallow minimum to that of the remaining cations. Two different temperature dependences of the chlorine NQR spin-lattice relaxation time (T1Q), attributable to a modulated electric-field-gradient by the protonic motion, were observed in (Me4N)2[MCl6] (M = Pb, Sn, Te). One is found in the Pb complex whose T1Q stems from the cationic motion responsible for the deep T1H minimum, and the other one is determined by the cationic motion giving the shallow T1H minimum. Although all room-temperature phases of these complexes are well described by the Fd 3c unit cell, the presence of different temperature dependences of T1Q suggests that the CH3 groups in the respective complexes take different orientations in the crystals
