A nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center in diamond has been investigated extensively because of its promising spin and optical properties for applications to nanoscale magnetic sensing and magnetic resonance of magnetic elements outside the diamond. For those applications, a long decoherence time and positioning of an NV center on the diamond surface are desired. Here, we report the creation of NV centers near the diamond surface using a 3 keV nitrogen implantation and the coherence property of the created NV center.
