Chemotherapy is one of the main treatment options for cancer, but it is usually accompanied with negative side effects. The classical drugs combination with synergistic adjuvants can be the solution to this problem, allowing reducing therapeutic dose. Elucidating the mechanism of adjuvant action is of key importance for the selection of the optimal agent.

We consider an open cavity mode undergoing up and down multistate quantum jumps due to the emission and absorption of photons. We prove that among all subtrajectories, starting simultaneously from different photon number states, only one survives a long single-run evolution.

Current methods of creation such as electronic-nuclear spin systems are inherently probabilistic with respect to mutual location of color center electronic spin and C nuclear spins.

With a bulk NV-diamond magnetometer coupled to a pair of optical fibers integrated with a microwave transmission line, the differential ODMR measurements are implemented in both space and time, with magnetic-field gradient measurements supplemented with differential ODMR signal detection in the time domain, allowing efficient noise cancellation and providing a sensitivity of magnetogradiometry at the level of 10 nT/(nmHz).
View Article and Find Full Text PDFDifferential optical detection of a magnetic resonance induced in nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond is shown to enable a high-spatial-resolution room-temperature magnetic-field gradiometry on a fiber platform. An ultracompact design of this fiber-based solid-state magnetic gradiometer is achieved by integrating an NV-diamond magnetic sensor with a two-fiber opto-microwave interface, which couples NV centers to microwave and optical fields, used to resonantly drive and interrogate the spin of NV centers.
