Nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond with its special optical and spin properties have become a promising instrument for quantum sensing. For sensitive sensing with high NV density, we aim to combine chemical vapour deposition (CVD) growth and consecutive characterization to optimize material parameters, which often are contrary in demand: High NV density concentration, yet long coherence time, low absorption or low birefringence. We design a systematic procedure to investigate the quality of in-house grown NV ensemble CVD diamonds, comparing our CVD diamond with type 1b high-pressure-high-temperature (HPHT) diamond. Multiple methods such as EPR, FTIR, photoluminescence maps, ODMR, UV-Vis spectroscopy and birefringence measurements are applied in the characterization work, to investigate the NV center formation in the synthesis procedure, the absorption, and the birefringence. Moreover, we take ODMR and coherence time measurements to investigate the spin properties. These methods give preliminary results of our first grown CVD diamond series, which assist to establish a further growth plan.
