ResumoThe negatively charged nitrogen-vacancy (NV-) center in diamond has realized new frontiers in quantum technology. Here, the center's optical and spin resonances are observed under hydrostatic pressures up to 60 GPa. Our observations motivate powerful new techniques to measure pressure and image high pressure magnetic and electric phenomena. Our observations further reveal a fundamental inadequacy of the current model of the center and provide new insight into its electronic structure.
