The use of nitrogen vacancy (NV) centers in diamond is a powerful approach for quantum sensing and can enhance the sensitivity of other techniques such as nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). Here, the authors present a dynamic nuclear polarization technique, which enhances the efficiency of polarisation transfer from the NV centre at volumes suitable for NMR without being disrupted by other defects within the diamond.
