Electron spin control of an optically levitated nanodiamond in vacuum

Electron spin control of an optically levitated nanodiamond in vacuum

We optically levitated a nanodiamond in partial vacuum and demonstrated electron spin control of its built-in nitrogen-vacancy centers. We observed that the strength of electron spin resonance is enhanced when the air pressure is reduced.
