The negatively charged nitrogen-vacancy (NV(-)) center in diamond is at the frontier of quantum nanometrology and biosensing. Recent attention has focused on the application of high-sensitivity thermometry using the spin resonances of NV(-) centers in nanodiamond to subcellular biological and biomedical research. Here, we report a comprehensive investigation of the thermal properties of the center's spin resonances and demonstrate an alternate all-optical NV(-) thermometry technique that exploits the temperature dependence of the center's optical Debye-Waller factor.
