The WAINVIEW relaxometer is equipped with a variable power green laser source that can be adapted to different applications. A pulsing system required for quantum detection allows the generation of very fast and precise sequences of light pulses to perform a T1 relaxometry protocol. The incident beam is then directed towards the sample containing NV-center diamonds through a microscope objective. The fluorescence signal from the diamonds is then backscattered and picked up by a very sensitive and fast detector to identify the low level of fluorescence in the pulse sequence. It can detect very small variations of magnetic field Thanks to optimised signal processing As NV fluorescent sensors are extremely photostable (and do not exhibit photobleaching) As only one drop of sample is needed on the usual microscope supports (slides, multi-well plates, Petri dishes, …) By choosing the specific diamond model for the desired application. Easy to use, thanks to the software developed specifically for this application Laser illumination 520nm Variable light power from 1µW to 1mW Warm-up time 1h for high accuracy and kinetic measurements Laser pulse and detection frequency up to 2MHz Detection filter > 650nm NEP (noise equivalent power) of the detector 1.3fW/Hz 1/2 Detector detection limit 2 pW RMS Measurement time 1 to 10 min, depending on the desired sensitivity Magnetic species detection limit 1nM to 1µM Size 70x70x70cm Power supply 230V / 50Hz Optimum temperature 22°C without interruption Storage -20°C to 55°C, humidity <65%. Lenses from x2 to x100, air or immersion Motorised platform High content screening platform Anti-vibration table Detection of magnetic species, such as : Evaluation of the effectiveness of antioxidant molecules that neutralise radical species in an extra-cellular medium for food or pharmaceutical applications. Detection of small temperature variations in oily or aqueous samples for quality control in industrial processes, particularly in the food and cosmetic industries. The WAINVIEW relaxometer works with the usual microscopy media (slides, multi-well plates, Petri dishes, …).

Quantum sensors
A quantum sensor is a measuring instrument that exploits the laws of quantum mechanics and provides the measurement of physical quantities directly from values of fundamental constants of quantum physics. Such a sensor is therefore inherently accurate and stable, both being essential properties for many
Oxidative stress
Oxidative stress is involved in many phenomena ranging from a simple burn to serious diseases such as cancer, infectious diseases or neurodegenerative diseases. It is promoted by internal mechanisms such as infections or deficiencies, as well as by external factors such as smoking, sun exposure
Functionalisation of nano-diamonds
The functionalisation of nano-diamonds refers to the modification of their surface that includes binding with chemicals or biomolecules (acids, proteins, etc.) to improve their properties and to bind them to specifically targeted locations with high precision [1,2]. Why is the functionalisation of nano-diamonds necessary? The
Metrology
Metrology is the science of measurement. It defines the units of measurement, realises them, maintains their integrity, disseminates them and regularly leads to improvements in the international system of units. National metrology bodies serve as reference points for the calibration of measuring instruments used in
