Abstract :
Colour centers in diamond, particularly the nitrogen vacancy, is studied. The paper discusses how to be able to determine the specific electron spin state the defect center is in and the nuclear spin states (coupled to the electron spin state by hyperfine interaction) around the defect center. The generation of the magnetic dipole transition due to simultaneous radiation with radio frequency allows the control of the these nuclear spin states around the center
