This study tackles the detection of individual molecules by combining a hybrid sensor—a nitrogen vacancy center (NV) and a dangling bond on the diamond surface—with a multi-tone dynamical decoupling sequence. Via numerical simulations the authors prove that the sequence minimizes the impact of decoherence, which allows using the dangling-bond as a signal amplifier.
