The negatively charged Nitrogen Vacancy color center (NV) is a spin active defect in diamond with a long spin lifetime at room temperature. It is a three level system whose value of the spin of the ground state can be driven by applying a microwave field (2.88 GHz). We aim to resolve two different NV centres separated by a distance in nanoscopic regime. Instead of using advanced confocal microscopy methods we exploit Rabi oscillations of the spin of the NV centre which show a spatial dependence due to applied microwave fields. Therefore we fabricate a microwave circuit, directly placed onto the diamond, which will allow us to apply different high intensity microwave fields and gradients. Besides this, knowing the spatial behaviour of the microwave field is crucial. To this aim we perform simulations of the microwave circuit also characterising them. Finally the relation between the Rabi oscillations and the microwave field of two NV centres close to each other can be used in order to compute the distance between them, with a resolution below 50 nm.
