Sensor assembly comprising a mounting support for a diamond

Abstract

The invention relates to a sensor assembly (10) comprising a mounting support (20) and a nitrogen-vacancy diamond (12) connected to at least one optical fiber (22), said mounting support (20) comprising: —a support element (30) having a bottom surface (32) defining a reference plane (P2), and having, at a front end, a socket (36) designed to receive the nitrogen-vacancy diamond (12) in a predetermined angular position (a1) allowing predetermined alignment of its nitrogen-vacancy axis with regards to the reference plane (P2), said socket (36) comprising a recess (40) for housing said nitrogen-vacancy diamond (12) in the predetermined angular position (a1), and —a holder element (50) which is mounted on the support element (30), and which comprises a guiding surface (52) to guide and bend the optical fiber (22) from the nitrogen-vacancy diamond (12) to a rear portion of the holder element (50).
