Definition

Nitrogen-vacancy defect in diamond whose spin-related response can support sensing. Practical performance depends on the device and measurement environment. A research demonstration is not automatically a validated forensic application. State what was measured and which service capability is actually established.

Context
Quantum sensing

For example, a sensitive measurement demonstrated with a diamond sensor requires additional task-specific evaluation before being claimed as a forensic service capability.
