Preparing highly entangled states of nanodiamond rotation and NV center spin (2305.08008v2)

Abstract: A nanodiamond with an embedded nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center is one of the experimental systems that can be coherently manipulated within current technologies. Entanglement between NV center electron spin and mechanical rotation of the nanodiamond plays a fundamental role in building a quantum network connecting these microscopic and mesoscopic degrees of motions. Here we present a protocol to asymptotically prepare a highly entangled state of the total quantum angular momentum and electron spin by adiabatically boosting the external magnetic field.
