Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by a person skilled in the art without creative work belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
Some probe structures are prepared by using methods such as magnetism, electrostatic adsorption and functional group modification in some patents, but the probes are very easily influenced by environmental conditions, and the stability and the sensitivity of the probes are difficult to ensure.
The characteristic of the NV color center of the diamond can be maintained from ultralow temperature to room temperature under the atmospheric environment, so that the diamond AFM probe based on the NV color center is more stable and has wider application prospect.
Therefore, the preparation of a diamond AFM probe based on NV color centers has a very important meaning, but as a novel scanning probe technology, the complexity of the preparation and the wide application of the scanning probe technology face huge challenges. Meanwhile, how to keep the long spin coherence time of the NV color center in the manufacturing process of the diamond AFM probe, and efficiently preparing and reading information such as fluorescence intensity of the NV color center, so that the improvement of the efficiency and sensitivity of the diamond AFM probe is still the key and difficult point of the current research.
Although some probe structures are mentioned in individual patent applications using NV colour centers, they do not specifically describe the preparation of diamond probes and do not address some of the specific problems of diamond AFM probes.
Furthermore, some experiments to implement scanning NV probes have focused on bonding the NV colour centers in diamond nanocrystals to the tip of the scanning probe, even if they can be used successfully, but this method is limited by the poor sensing performance of the NV colour centers in nanocrystals, and its spin coherence time is usually several orders of magnitude shorter than that of the NV colour centers in bulk diamond, so there is still much room for improvement in detection sensitivity and fluorescence efficiency.
For other color centers in diamond, such as silicon vacancy color centers, although the fluorescence collection efficiency can also be improved in pyramid-shaped diamond, the fluorescence collection efficiency still has a great improvement space compared with a structure with high fluorescence collection efficiency prepared on diamond.

The manufacturing method comprises the following steps:
s101: a diamond substrate is provided.
In this step, the blank sample is an electronic grade pure single crystal diamond with a thickness of about 20 μm and a size of 2mm 0.02 mm.
S102: and carrying out ion implantation and high-temperature annealing on the back of the diamond substrate to form an NV color center.
In this step, a diamond substrate is placed in a triacid (HClO)4：HNO3：H2SO4Heating at 295 ℃ in a ratio of 1:1:1), and washing for 5 h.
By means of an ion implanter14N+And14N2+injecting blank diamond samples containing N ions; the energy interval of the implantation is 2.5keV-40 keV; the dose interval of the implanted ions is 1010atom/cm2-1012atom/cm2(ii) a The injection is followed by a three acid wash.
Then, an ultrahigh-temperature vacuum annealing furnace is used for annealing the injected sample at the high temperature of 600-1200 ℃ to realize the combination of vacancy and nitrogen element to generate NV color center, and the vacuum degree during annealing is better than 10-4Pa to ensure that the diamond is not graphitized, and then cleaning the surface impurities again with triacid.
S103: and forming diamond cantilevers arranged in an array on the front surface of the diamond substrate.
In the step, the high fluorescence collection structure is prepared on the surface of the diamond mainly by manufacturing a patterned mask on the surface of the diamond and transferring the mask pattern to the surface of the diamond through a diamond etching process.
Wherein, the material for making the diamond surface mask includes but is not limited to metal, metal oxide, SiO2Or HSQ e-beam photoresist, etc.
The following description will be given taking a metal material Cr as an example of a mask:
and forming a diamond cantilever on the non-injection side of the diamond by using an ultraviolet lithography technology.
The ultraviolet lithography refers to transferring a pattern on a mask plate to a substrate by means of a photoresist under the action of illumination. The main process is as follows: irradiating the surface of the substrate attached with a layer of photoresist mask by ultraviolet light through the mask plate to cause the photoresist in the exposure area to generate chemical reaction; and dissolving and removing the photoresist (the former is positive photoresist and the latter is negative photoresist) in the exposed area or the unexposed area by a developing technology, so that the pattern on the mask is copied to the photoresist film.
The method comprises the following specific steps:
firstly, spin-coating photoresist AZ5214 on diamond by a spin coater at 2000-4000 rpm for 30s, and baking on a hot plate at 100 ℃ for 90s to obtain a region with a thickness of 1.4-3 μm. Then, using an ultraviolet photoetching machine to carry out exposure, wherein the exposure time is 1.4s-2s, and the exposure dose is 19.5mw/cm2. After exposure, baking the substrate on a hot plate at 100 ℃ for 120s, and performing flood exposure for 15s to form a negative etching layout.
After exposure, the substrate was developed with 2.38% TMAH solution for 50s and rinsed with deionized water for 30 s.
The surface of the diamond with the photoresist structure is subjected to electron beam evaporation coating, and then is stripped through dissolution so as to form a metal mask on the surface of the diamond. It should be noted that, a metal layer is required to be plated on the surface of the diamond to serve as a mask for the next etching, and the diamond and the plated metal layer have a high etching ratio. In this step, a chromium metal mask of 10nm to 500nm is deposited on the surface of the diamond by electron beam evaporation deposition using chromium metal as an example, and the mask metal may be gold, nickel or other metal or SiNxOr SiO2And the like.
The specific stripping comprises the following steps: and heating the sample in a water bath of a degumming agent NMP for stripping the chromium film for 1-2 hours, and then washing the diamond surface with acetone and water to remove the photoresist on the surface. The stripping method is one of the most commonly applied pattern transfer techniques in micro-nano processing. The lift-off method requires that a pattern of an organic polymer is generated on a photoresist by optical or electron beam exposure, the organic polymer is removed by a solvent such as acetone after the film deposition, and a metal film is left in an area not covered by the photoresist, thereby realizing the transfer from the photoresist pattern to the metal film pattern.
And then etching the diamond cantilever by using an inductively coupled plasma etching machine.
The etching is mainly carried out by utilizing plasma, volatile gas is generated by reaction, and a physical sputtering process (RF power control) and a chemical reaction process (ICP power control) exist in the process.
The physical sputtering process controls the directionality of the etching, and the chemical reaction process dominates the etching.
Optionally, the model of the inductively coupled reactive plasma etcher used in the present application is 0xford180, and the etching parameters of the apparatus are as follows:
RF power: 50W-1000W; ICP power: 10W-2000W; o is2Flow rate: 1-30 sccm; pressure: 5mTorr-100 mTorr; etching time: 10min-225 min; etching depth: 100nm-10000 nm.

S104: and forming fluorescent collection structures arranged in an array on the back of the diamond substrate, wherein the fluorescent collection structures correspond to the diamond cantilever beams one to one.
In this step, after the diamond cantilever structure is etched, a fluorescence collecting structure is aligned at a position where one side of the diamond ion implantation corresponds to the back cantilever structure, here, a paraboloid and a nano-pillar structure are taken as an example.
The description will be given by taking a parabolic structure as an example:
firstly, a layer of SiO with the thickness of 200nm is grown on the surface of the diamond by using Ebeam-Lesker-Lab2a/SiNx mask. Then spin coating AZ5214 photoresist on the formed mask by an ultraviolet photoetching machine and generating a disc with the diameter of 1-3 μm by alignment, controlling the thickness of the generated disc to be 1-5 μm by controlling the spin coating speed, then heating the sample to 120-200 ℃ by a hot plate and heating for 2-10 min to make the photoresist thermally reflow to form a hemisphereAnd (4) a shape structure.
The formed photoresist pattern is then transferred to SiO by inductively coupled reactive plasma etching2On the/SiNx mask, the model of a plasma etching machine is as follows: oxford 380 etching parameters, the etching gas is CF4。
Finally, the SiO is etched by plasma2And forming a diamond paraboloid structure on the diamond transferred by the/SiNx mask pattern. The etching parameters used were as follows:
RF power: 10-500W; ICP power: 10-2000W; o is2Flow rate: 1-30 sccm; pressure: 5-100 mTorr.
The nano-pillar structure is taken as an example for explanation:
and forming a mask for preparing the nano-pillar probe on the diamond cantilever by using an electron beam exposure system.
An Electron Beam Lithography (EBL) is a device that directly generates a pattern by scanning an electron beam on a surface of a workpiece. The electron beam exposure uses some high molecular polymers sensitive to electrons to form an exposure pattern, and has the advantage of directly inscribing fine patterns.
The method comprises the following specific steps: a layer of FOX-16 photoresist is spin-coated on the sample by a spin coater, the rotation speed is 1200-3200 rpm, the acceleration is 1000, and the thickness is about 400-700 nm.
The sample is put into an electron beam exposure system, and the exposure dose of the nano-column probe on the diamond cantilever beam is 3000uC/cm2Cross exposure dose of 2000uC/cm2. After exposure, the sample was removed, developed with 25% TMAH solution for 2min, and fixed with deionized water for 3 min.
