DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure are clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Apparently, the described embodiments are merely some rather than all of the embodiments of the present disclosure. All other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art on the basis of the embodiments of the present disclosure without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.

An objective of the present disclosure is to provide a frequency measurement system and method of a RF signal, with the advantages of a strong anti-interference ability, large measurement bandwidth, and high measurement accuracy.

To make the above objectives, features, and advantages of the present disclosure clearer and more comprehensible, the present disclosure is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and the specific examples.

The present disclosure provides the frequency measurement system of a RF, including:

a magnetic field source module, a light source module, an excitation module, a CMOS camera, and a signal processing module, where

the magnetic field source module is configured to generate a magnetic field;

the excitation module is disposed in the magnetic field; the excitation module is disposed on an output light path of the light source module; the CMOS camera is disposed on an output light path of the excitation module; and the CMOS camera is connected to the signal processing module;

The light source module specifically includes:

a laser source, a half-wave plate, a polarizing beam splitter, a first convex lens, an acousto-optic modulator, a second convex lens, a mirror, and an optical beam reducer that are disposed sequentially; and

the excitation module is disposed on an output light path of the optical beam reducer.

Specifically, the laser source is 532 mn.

Specifically, the magnetic field source module specifically includes:

a three-axis translation stage and a magnetic field source; and

the magnetic field source is disposed on the three-axis translation stage; and the three-axis translation stage is configured to adjust a position of the magnetic field source.

The magnetic field source is a gradient magnetic field source.

The excitation module specifically includes:

a power amplifier, a long-strip antenna board, and a diamond;

the diamond is disposed on the long-strip antenna board; and the power amplifier is connected to the long-strip antenna board; and

the power amplifier is configured to receive the to-be-tested RF signal, and after amplifying power of the to-be-tested RF signal, transmit the to-be-tested RF signal to the diamond by using the long-strip antenna board.

In addition, in the frequency measurement system of a RF signal provided in the present disclosure, a filter is disposed between the excitation module and the CMOS camera.

As shown in FIG. 1, the present disclosure provides a NV center in diamond instantaneous-frequency detection system based on a gradient magnetic field. The system includes: a to-be-tested unit 1, an optical path system 2, a CMOS camera 3, and a data processing unit 4.

With reference to FIG. 2(a), 2(b), and FIG. 3, a schematic diagram in which the gradient magnetic field source and an antenna act on the diamond includes a three-axis translation stage 1-1, a gradient magnetic field source 1-2, a magnetic field gradient 1-2-1, a to-be-tested RF signal 1-3, a special diamond 1-4, a long-strip antenna board 1-5, a long-strip antenna 1-5-1, and a power amplifier 1-6. When the to-be-tested RF signal 1-3 acts on the special diamond 1-4 by using the long-strip antenna board 1-5, the magnetic field gradient 1-2-1 shows a downward trend along the laser direction. The to-be-tested RF signal 1-3 acts on the special diamond along the long-strip antenna 1-5-1. The three-axis translation stage 1-1 is moved to change the downward trend of the magnetic field gradient in the diamond until a formant of the signal is detected, and the formant is shot instantaneously by the CMOS camera 3. The special diamond of a high-concentration NV center is prepared through the nitrogen ion implantation and the multi-stage annealing process. The length x width x height of its size is 10 mm×10 mm×5 mm.

With reference to FIG. 4, the optical path structure of NV center quantum system includes a laser source 2-1, a half-wave plate 2-2, a polarizing beam splitter 2-3, a convex lens 2-4, an acousto-optic modulator 2-5, a mirror 2-6, an optical beam reducer 2-7, and a filter 2-8. The 532-nm laser generated by the laser source 2-1 runs through the half-wave plate 2-2 and the polarizing beam splitter 2-3 to obtain a vertically polarized laser of which the intensity can be adjusted arbitrarily, which is conducive to polarizing the NV center more efficiently. The light path is focused and aligned through the convex lens 2-4. A diffraction effect is generated through the acousto-optic modulator 2-5. A first-order diffracted light is filtered out by using a diaphragm to provide a pulsed beam for the quantum state control of the NV center. The mirror 2-6 directs the laser into the optical beam reducer 2-7 for focusing, and the laser is finally directed into the special diamond 1-4.

When the to-be-tested RF signal acts on the special diamond by using the power amplifier and the long-strip antenna board, the gradient magnetic field source generates a gradient magnetic field in the special diamond along the direction of the antenna. The three-axis translation stage is moved to change the magnetic field gradient in the diamond. In the optical path system, the 532-nm laser generated by the laser source runs through the half-wave plate and the polarizing beam splitter to obtain the vertically polarized laser of which the intensity can be adjusted arbitrarily, which is conducive to polarizing the NV center more efficiently. The light path is focused and aligned through the convex lens. The diffraction effect is generated through the acousto-optic modulator. The first-order diffracted light is filtered out by using a diaphragm to provide the pulsed beam for the quantum state control of the NV center. The mirror directs the laser into the optical beam reducer for reducing, and the laser is finally directed into the special diamond. The gradient magnetic field source generates the gradient magnetic field in the special diamond along the direction of the antenna. The CMOS camera instantaneously shoots a fluorescent signal generated in the special diamond. If a dark spot generated by a formant is not shot, the three-axis translation stage may be moved to change the magnetic field gradient, and the special diamond is shot instantaneously again until a dark spot generated by the formant is shot. The corresponding magnetic field strength can be obtained according to a distance between the gradient magnetic field source and the special diamond, and is processed and calculated by the data processing unit. The resonant frequency offset is inversely deduced from the Zeeman splitting degree of the formant, and the frequency of the to-be-tested signal is obtained from the resonant frequency offset.

Specifically, the CMOS camera instantaneously shoots the fluorescent signal generated in the special diamond. If the dark spot generated by the formant is not shot, the three-axis translation stage may be moved to change the magnetic field gradient, and the special diamond is shot instantaneously again until a dark spot generated by the formant is shot. The corresponding magnetic field strength can be obtained according to the distance between the gradient magnetic field source and the special diamond, and is processed and calculated by the data processing unit. The calculation process is as follows: An offset Δx1 between a formant dark part and an edge of the diamond block is obtained first according to a result of the instantaneous shooting. The offset is added to a displacement Δx2 of the diamond to a magnet to obtain a total distance Δx between the formant dark spot and the magnet. An actual magnetic field size B at the formant dark spot is obtained according to the magnetic field gradient and a displacement Δx. The energy-step transition frequency of the NV center changes with the magnetic field size in the axial magnetic field, that is, Δf=2γB (γ is a gyromagnetic ratio of 2.8 MHz/Gauss). A frequency f=f₀+Δf of an unknown RF signal is obtained according to the frequency offset Δf obtained through measurement and the resonant frequency 2.87 GHz (f₀) of the NV center in the zero magnetic field. Due to the limited length of the diamond along the direction of the magnetic field gradient, to make full use of the entire magnetic field gradient as much as possible and increase the frequency measurement range, the magnetic field gradient is uniformly divided into a plurality of small magnetic field gradient intervals along the x-axis direction by the length of the diamond. The diamond position offset of the corresponding interval and the corresponding small magnetic field gradient are recorded and stored, which is convenient for directly finding the displacement of the diamond to the magnetic field during the subsequent data processing, thereby obtaining the magnetic field gradient in the corresponding interval. Then, the magnetic field information at the formant dark spot can be calculated faster finally according to the position of the formant dark spot on the diamond. The magnetic field gradients of the gradient magnetic field source are used as a database to be uploaded to the data processing unit. When the formant of the signal is shot, the offset of the formant can be quickly located in the computer.
