Reconstruction of vector static magnetic field by different axial NV centers using continuous wave optically detected magnetic resonance in diamond

We carried out a proof-of-principle demonstration of the reconstruction of a static vector magnetic field involving adjacent three nitrogen-vacancy(NV) sensors with corresponding different NV symmetry axes in a bulk diamond. By means of optical detection of the magnetic resonance(ODMR) techniques, our experiment employs the continuous wave(CW) to monitor resonance frequencies and it extracts the information of the detected field strength and polar angles with respect to each NV frame of reference. Finally, the detected magnetic field relative to a fixed laboratory reference frame was reconstructed from the information acquired by the multi-NV sensor.
