The negatively charged Nitrogen Vacancy (NV-) centers in diamond are very promising candidates for magnetic field sensors[1]. NV- has an electron spin, whose state can be read out optically, shows very long coherence times and is very sensitive to proximal spins[2,3]. NV- experiences decoherence caused by a spin bath of biological systems very precisely. The effect is strongly dependent on the distance between NV- and bath. We want to measure the coherence depending on the distance of the metallo protein ferritin to the NV-, thus imaging the spin densities of the protein molecule. To bring the molecules close to the NV center in a controlled fashion, they are attached to an AFM tip, which is brought to the diamond, with NV- at a depth of 2-5nm beneath the surface. The coherence is then measured depending on the molecules position with respect to the NV-. This method is in principle applicable for any protein and thus a very promising candidate for decoherence sensing of molecules.
