“The nitrogen-vacancy center (N-V center or NV center) is one of numerous photoluminescent point defects in diamond. It consists of a nearest-neighbor pair of a nitrogen atom, which substitutes for a carbon atom, and a lattice vacancy.” (Wikipedia, Nitrogen-vacancy center)
“NV centers enable nanoscale measurements of magnetic and electric fields, temperature, and mechanical strain with improved precision. External perturbation sensitivity makes NV centers ideal for applications in biomedicine—such as single-molecule imaging and cellular process modeling.”(Wikipedia, Nitrogen-vacancy center)
“In crystallography, a vacancy is a type of point defect in a crystal where an atom is missing from one of the lattice sites. Crystals inherently possess imperfections, sometimes referred to as crystallographic defects.” (Wikipedia, Vacancy defect)
The image of Bravais lattices explains how electrons interact around the atom. There is, of course, a ball-shaped field around atoms, but between electrons. There is also a straight energy string. Those strings are energy flows that travel between those electrons. The atom’s shell pulls those electrons into it. And that keeps electrons and atoms. In one entirety. And the energy bridges between them, the electromagnetic push between negative electrons tries to push those electrons away.

In natural diamonds, the NV centers form randomly. But. There is a possibility of creating artificial NV centers. And putting them in line. This allows information to travel through that line. Those NV centers can be used as the transmitters in the quantum radars. This means that the diamonds there have the NV state line in them. Those NV-states can be used in high-resolution quantum Doppler radars. The system transmits electricity to those NV states. And then they act as the transmitting dipoles.
In the image above, a method is introduced for stabilizing the qubit chain in the diamonds. Qubits, or their nitrogen vacancy (NV) states, are chained in the diamond. The diamond presses that qubit chain, and keeps it in form. When information is transported into the qubit’s transmitting side, it allows the wave to travel through those NV states. In a qubit chain, the qubits form an energy staircase. There, they can transport information. Step by step. The system can adjust energy levels on those stairs. Very accurately. This means that lasers can be used to transport energy into those NV states or NV steps. The system can transport information in the static NV-state system.

When we think of this system as the tool that transports qubits through air or quantum channels, we must remember that diamond can be used as a phonon. First, the system makes the phonon. That creates the acoustic tunnel through the air. Then the information is sent to the NV states. The NV states send that wave movement into the receiver, and there, the receiving NV state starts to resonate. Another version is that the diamond takes the one NV state to its sharpest point. The system can use the corners of the pyramid-shaped diamond. To make the energy tweezers that lock the ion in front of that NV state line. Then the qubit line stores information in that NV state. And the higher energy level in that system pushes the qubit through the quantum channel. These types of systems are very interesting. They can be used to transport information in a highly secure mode.
“Natural NV centers are randomly oriented within a diamond crystal. Ion implantation techniques can enable their artificial creation in predetermined positions as follows.” (Wikipedia, Nitrogen-vacancy center)
“Nitrogen-vacancy centers are typically produced from single substitutional nitrogen centers (called C or P1 centers in diamond literature) by irradiation followed by annealing at temperatures above 700 °C. A wide range of high-energy particles is suitable for such irradiation, including electrons, protons, neutrons, ions, and gamma photons. Irradiation produces lattice vacancies, which are a part of NV centers. Those vacancies are immobile at room temperature, and annealing is required to move them. Single substitutional nitrogen produces strain in the diamond lattice; it therefore efficiently captures moving vacancies,[producing the NV centers.” (Wikipedia, Nitrogen-vacancy center)
