Popis: | Optically detected magnetic resonance (ODMR) is an efficient mechanism to readout the spin of solid-state color centers at room temperature, thus enabling spin-based quantum sensors of magnetic field, electric field, and temperature with high sensitivity and broad commercial applicability. The mechanism of room temperature ODMR is based on spin-dependent relaxation between the optically excited states to the ground states, and thus it is an intrinsic property of a defect center. In this work we report that two distinct defect types exist in GaN based on their ODMR signatures. One group has small negative ODMR based on a spin in a metastable state. The second group has large (up to $\sim$30\%) positive ODMR contrast based on ground-state spin. Because GaN is a mature semiconductor with well-developed electronic technologies already developed, this defect platform is promising for integrated quantum sensing applications.
