Title: In situ optimization of co-implantation and substrate temperature conditions for Nv-center formation in single crystal diamonds

Journal Article · · New Journal of Physics, NJP

We present first results from in situ characterization of NV-formation in single crystal diamonds following implantation of low energy nitrogen ions (7.7 keV), co-implantation of hydrogen, helium and carbon ions and in situ annealing. Diamond samples were implanted at room temperature or at a temperature of 780{degree} C during the implantation steps. We find that dynamic annealing during co-implantation enhances NV-center formation by up to 25%.
