Quantum Sensing of Microwave Magnetic Fields with Sensor Unlimited Resolution — •Jonas Meinel, Vadim Vorobyov, Boris Yavkin, Durga Dasari, and Jörg Wrachtrup — Universität Stuttgart, 3. Physikalisches Institut, Stuttgart, Germany

Diamond quantum sensors are sensitive to weak microwave magnetic fields resonant to the transitions in the quantum system [1]. The state of the art sensing protocols improved the sensors spectral resolution beyond T2* and are ultimately limited by T1. Here we demonstrate that heterodyne detection methods, widely applied for quantum sensing of radio frequency fields [2], could be extended to the microwave regime. We use phase control of the initial pulses of the sequences, which allows to create correlations between consecutive measurements. We show experimentally a Fourier limited linewidth for a single frequency source. Additional we resolve two 500 Hz separated frequencies demonstrating a corresponding spectral resolution beyond coherence time of the sensor. This work allows to sense ultra long coherent microwave fields, e.g. maser radiation, using a quantum sensor with a wide tuning range covering the full microwave spectrum (1 - 100 GHz).
