  • Patent number: 11933865
    Abstract: A magnetic resonance member 1 includes a crystal structure and is capable of electron spin quantum operations with microwaves of different frequencies corresponding to arrangement orientations of a vacancy and an impurity in a crystal lattice. A magnetic field transmission unit 4 senses a measurement target magnetic field at plural measurement positions different from each other, and applies application magnetic fields corresponding to the measurement target magnetic field sensed at the plural measurement positions to the magnetic resonance member 1 along respective different directions corresponding to the aforementioned arrangement orientations. A measurement control unit 21 controls a high frequency power supply 12, and determines detection values detected by a detecting device (an irradiating device 5 and a light receiving device 6) of the physical phenomena corresponding to the plural measurement positions.

  • Patent number: 11754793
    Abstract: An excitation light irradiation device includes a substrate having a color center. The color center is excited by an excitation light incident to the substrate. The substrate includes first and second reflection surfaces facing each other, and first and second end surfaces facing each other. When the excitation light enters into the substrate, the incident excitation light travels from the first end surface to the second end surfaces while repeatedly reflecting between the first and second reflection surfaces. The second end surface is inclined. The second end surface reflects the incident excitation light so as to cause the incident excitation light to be emitted from one of the first and second reflection surfaces.

  • Publication number: 20230194448
    Abstract: A substrate 1 includes a color center excited by excitation light, and at least a pair of reflection members 21a, 21b are arranged with gaps from the substrate 1. The substrate 1 causes the excitation light entering the substrate 1 to exit through its surfaces without reflection, and the reflection members 21a, 21b cause the exited excitation light to reflect at the reflection surface 21-1 or 21-2 and enter the substrate 1, and cause the excitation light to repeatedly enter and exit the substrate 1 and thereby pass through the substrate 1 only a predetermined number of times. Here, the irradiating device 4 emits the excitation light such that the excitation light is incident to the reflection surface 21-1 or 21-2 with an angle perpendicular to one axis among two axes of the reflection surface 21-1 or 21-2 and with a predetermined slant angle from the other axis.
