Abstract
Levitated nanodiamonds containing negatively charged nitrogen-vacancy centers ( NV − ) have been proposed as a platform to generate macroscopic spatial superpositions. Requirements for this include having a long NV − spin coherence time, which necessitates formulating a dynamical decoupling strategy in which the regular spin flips do not cancel the growth of the superposition through the Stern-Gerlach effect in an inhomogeneous magnetic field. Here, we propose a scheme to place a 250 − n m -diameter diamond in a superposition with spatial separation of over 250 n m , while incorporating dynamical decoupling. We achieve this by letting a diamond fall for 2.4 m through a magnetic structure, including 1.13 m in an inhomogeneous region generated by magnetic teeth.
