Understanding diffusion in microstructures plays a crucial role in many scientific fields, including neuroscience, medicine, or energy research. While magnetic resonance (MR) methods are the gold standard for diffusion measurements, spatial encoding in MR imaging has limitations. Here, we introduce nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center-based nuclear MR (NMR) spectroscopy as a powerful tool to probe diffusion within microscopic sample volumes.

Article Synopsis
- Single-cell analysis reveals differences in cell functions that are often missed in standard measurements, but there's a need for noninvasive methods to analyze chemical properties.
- Nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond offer a promising solution by enabling NMR spectroscopy on very small sample sizes.
- The article reviews advances in NV-based quantum sensing and suggests ways to improve sensitivity for detecting chemicals in individual cells, pointing towards future applications in single-cell studies.
Lab-on-a-chip (LOC) applications have emerged as invaluable physical and life sciences tools. The advantages stem from advanced system miniaturization, thus, requiring far less sample volume while allowing for complex functionality, increased reproducibility, and high throughput. However, LOC applications necessitate extensive sensor miniaturization to leverage these inherent advantages fully.
