Description
NVCore™ Premium
HPHT-Engineered Single-Crystal CVD Diamond with Ensemble NV Centers
NVCore™ Premium is a high-performance single-crystal CVD diamond platform engineered for ensemble nitrogen-vacancy (NV) applications requiring improved optical uniformity and a more controlled defect environment. Starting from nitrogen-rich CVD diamond, NVCore™ Premium undergoes an additional HPHT treatment designed to modify the nitrogen-vacancy defect landscape and improve the consistency of ensemble NV response.
The material combines a typical nitrogen concentration of approximately 10–30 ppm with a polished (100)-oriented single-crystal diamond platform. Compared with standard ensemble-grade material, the Premium grade is intended for applications where stronger optical response, narrower statistical variation, and more reproducible NV behavior are important.
NVCore™ Premium is supplied in a typical 2 × 2 × 0.5 mm format with double-side polished surfaces, AFM roughness below 5 nm, full-corner geometry, and controlled crystal orientation. The additional HPHT processing distinguishes this grade from standard ensemble material by further engineering the defect population after CVD growth.
NVCore™ Premium is particularly suited for:
- High-performance ensemble NV sensing
- ODMR spectroscopy
- Magnetic-field sensing and imaging
- Wide-field NV microscopy
- High-signal fluorescence measurements
- Spin-defect spectroscopy
- Quantum sensing research
- Studies of HPHT-mediated defect engineering in diamond
- Applications requiring improved NV uniformity and reproducibility
Choose NVCore™ Ensemble or NVCore™ Premium for ready-to-use ensemble NV centers, OptiCore™ for general optical and spectroscopy applications, and QuantumCore™ Ultra for ultra-pure diamond intended for custom defect engineering, electronics, and quantum sensing research.
NVCore™ Premium is intentionally nitrogen-rich and optimized for high ensemble NV activity rather than single-NV coherence.
