Abstract
Point defect qubits in semiconductors have demonstrated their outstanding capabilities for high spatial resolution sensing generating broad multidisciplinary interest. Hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) hosting point defect qubits have recently opened up new horizons for quantum sensing by implementing sensing foils. The sensitivity of point defect sensors in hBN is currently limited by the linewidth of the magnetic resonance signal, which is broadened due to strong hyperfine couplings. Here, we report on a vacancy-related spin qubit with an inherently low symmetry configuration, the VB2 center, giving rise to a reduced magnetic resonance linewidth at zero magnetic fields. The VB2 center is also equipped with a classical memory that can be utilized for storing population information. Using scanning transmission electron microscopy imaging, we confirm the existence of the VB2 configuration in free-standing monolayer hBN.
