Abstract
A wireless detonator circuit includes a nitrogen-doped diamond quantum receiver. The nitrogen is embedded inside a diamond substrate. A light source illuminates the nitrogen-doped diamond. A number of layered optical filters, which are based on the principles of interferometry, and are in communication with the light source. One or more photodetector cells measure the quantity of photons emitted by the light source. One or more microwave antennae are located to permit even polarization of the diamond, thereby permitting magnetic field detection sensitivity in the picotesla range.
