Nanodiamonds for optical bioimaging (2010, methodology): “Most recently, STED has been applied to the detection of single (N-V)− centres in bulk diamond [80].”
Properties of nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond: the group theoretic approach (2010, background): “Nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers have emerged as promising candidates for a number of applications [1]–[4], ranging from high spatial resolution imaging [5] to quantum computation [6].”
Creation and nature of optical centres in diamond for single-photon emission—overview and critical remarks (2011, methodology): “Indeed, the NV centres in diamond have proved to be an almost ideal test bed for high-resolution microscopy (single NV centres can be resolved optically with a few nm resolution [26]).”
What spatial light modulators can do for optical microscopy (2011, background): “Thus, the effective area from where fluorescence is emitted shrinks with increasing laser intensity, and diameters of only a few nanometers have already been achieved [6].”
