Abstract: Nitrogen-vacancy (NV) pair in diamond has been widely investigated due to its profound quantum properties even at relatively higher temperature compared with those materials having to satisfy strict cryogenic conditions to display quantum states. Spin properties of NV center in diamond can be tuned by external electromagnetic radiations, which leads to its application in detecting microwave signals. Here in this work, density functional theory (DFT) method has been used to analyze electronic properties of diamond with NV centers with the aim of utilizing it for detecting very weak microwave radiations from electron cryotron radiations, to ultimately determine neutrino mass.
