A variety of magnetic imaging and sensing methods exist, including NMR, SQUIDs, atomic vapors and magnetic resonance force microscopy. While NMR is a standard technique for imaging in living organisms and the other techniques achieve sensitivities down to single spins, currently no technique combines few spin sensitivity, sub-micron spatial resolution and ambient operational conditions. Negatively charged nitrogen-vacancy centers (NVs) in diamond are promising candidates to fill this gap. Since the spin state of the atomic-sized defect can be optically polarized and read out, NV centers allow for high resolution magnetic sensing via Zeeman-shift, spin precession and relaxometry. We employ an ensemble of implanted NVs for wide-field magnetic sensing and imaging. Applications to microfluidic spin detection and magnetic spin imaging with diffraction limited resolution are presented. Several spin species are analyzed in regard to their possible application as magnetic sensing markers.
