But the NV centers also can be spin-polarized by low-power lasers, and the polarized centers then polarize nearby carbon-13 atoms occurring naturally in the diamonds. These hyperpolarized C-13 atoms can be detected by NMR imaging. Chemists now demonstrate dual-mode imaging with NV-center diamonds, potentially allowing high-quality imaging 10 times deeper than with optics alone.&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n Click here for original story, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedaily.com\/releases\/2021\/05\/210517194643.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Diamonds engage both optical microscopy and MRI for better imaging<\/a>&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\nSource: ScienceDaily&#013;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Microdiamonds with nitrogen vacancy centers are increasingly used as biological tracers thanks to the optical fluorescence of NV centers.
