Majority of dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) experiments have been requiring helium cryogenics and strong magnetic fields for a high degree of nuclear polarization. In this work, we instead demonstrate an optical hyperpolarization of naturally abundant 13C nuclei in a diamond crystal at a low magnetic field and the room temperature. It exploits continuous laser irradiation for polarizing electronic spins of nitrogen vacancy centers and microwave irradiation for transferring the electronic polarization to 13C nuclear spins. We have studied the dependence of 13C polarization on laser and microwave powers. For the first time, a triplet structure corresponding to the 14N hyperfine splitting has been observed in the 13C polarization spectrum. By simultaneously exciting three microwave frequencies at the peaks of the triplet, we have achieved 13C bulk polarization of 0.113 %, leading to an enhancement of 90,000 over the thermal polarization at 17.6 mT. We believe that the multi-tone irradiation can be extended to further enhance the 13C polarization at a low magnetic field. |
