    Abstract

    The negatively charged nitrogen-vacancy (NV-) center in diamond is at the frontier of quantum nanometrology and biosensing. Recent attention has focused on the application of high-sensitivity thermometry using the spin resonances of NV- centers in nanodiamond to subcellular biological and biomedical research. Here, we report a comprehensive investigation of the thermal properties of the centers spin resonances and demonstrate an alternate all-optical NV- thermometry technique that exploits the temperature dependence of the centers optical Debye-Waller factor.
