The nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center in diamond features an electronic qutrit ground state with long coherence times even at room temperature, which can conveniently be manipulated by microwave pulses and read-out optically [1]. The NV center is well-known for offering a broad range of quantum applications, which stimulates a great interest in developing new, or adapting known control schemes.

Here we present the well-known concept of stimulated Raman transitions [2], which can be used to excite transitions between two states not directly coupled to a radiation field, applied to the NV center’s triplet ground state. Depending on the two-photon microwave pulse sequence, either stimulated Raman transitions (SRT) or stimulated Raman adiabatic passage (STIRAP) could successfully be implemented in the NV center [3]. We show, that both schemes can successfully drive the dipole-forbidden ms=−1↔ ms=+1 transition. Furthermore we compare both mechanisms on their robustness and success of spin-swap, as well as their experimental challenges.
