We demonstrate a method of all-optical magnetometry by using magnetic-field-dependent features in the photoluminescence of negatively charged nitrogen-vacancy centers. In particular, our method relies on the level anti-crossing (LAC) in the triplet ground state at 102.4mT without the requirement of microwaves. Firstly, we present a magnetometer with a demonstrated noise floor of 6 nT/√Hz. Secondly, we show how the sensitivity is improved by implementing a more dilute diamond sample with a smaller linewidth of the LAC feature in a more homogeneous background field. The technique presented here removes the microwave requirements for magnetometry with NV centers which makes the scheme potentially useful in applications where the sensor is placed close to conductive materials.
