QUANTUM DIAMOND MEMBRANES
Perform experiments on thousands of color centers
Single NV arrays with enhanced optical outcoupling
Make your single NV experiments easy and fast with our NV arrays. These consist of a diamond membrane with arrays of light outcoupling structures mounted on a sapphire frame for easy handling. These structures are shaped to enhance the collection efficiency by more than 10× compared to bulk diamond, significantly increasing the signal-to-noise ratio.

Accelerate your research with high emitter yield and significantly enhanced brightness.
Nanoscale quantum sensing
Designed for surface-sensitive measurements in chemistry and biology. Deposit your sample directly onto the membrane and probe magnetic signals with nanoscale resolution.
- Detection of paramagnetic ions and metal complexes
- Monitoring radical reactions and catalytic processes
- Nanoscale NMR of molecules at surfaces Abendroth et. al.
- Imaging spin-labeled biomolecules
- Sensing magnetic nanoparticles used as biomarkers
Shallow NV centers enable maximum surface sensitivity, making the membrane a powerful platform for studying molecular dynamics, chemical reactions, and biological systems at the nanoscale.
Combine Quantum Diamond Membranes with the Quantum Confocal Microscope (QCFM) to run quantum optics experiments, control single-photon sources, implement qubit protocols, and perform nanoscale surface sensing in chemistry and biology.
Configuration options
Configure the diamond membrane for your experiment
Diamond cut
Choose from ⟨100⟩, ⟨110⟩, or ⟨111⟩ diamond cuts. Select ⟨111⟩ to allow for out-of-plane NV orientation or ⟨110⟩ for in-plane.
Implantation depth
Choose the average NV implantation depth from 5 nm to 50 nm. Deeper NVs have higher coherence while shallower NVs are more sensitive to surface fields and phenomena.
Number of NVs per pillar
Choose between membranes where each pillar hosts on average one or multiple NV centers.
Higher coherence - C12
For measurements that require higher coherences choose the isotopically pure C12 diamonds.
Design
The standard design hosts arrays of pillars arranged on a 1.4x1.4 mm² piece of diamond. Please let us know if you require any alterations to the pillar shape or membrane design.
Special requests
Feel free to ask for any special features such as implantation angle, implantation species, multiple implantations, surface annealing, or higher C13 content.
