Abstract
We report efficient CW optical phase conjugation and resonantly enhanced four-wave mixing spectroscopy of the N-V color center in synthetic diamond. An ultra-narrow resonance is observed in the room temperature nearly degenerate four-wave mixing spectrum upon excitation within the vibronic band at 579 nm, furnishing the triplet manifold decay rate.
