configuration coordinate dcl. The optical transition
of the NV centre occurs tween a singly degenerate

Fig. 1 shows the absorption, emission and excitation
spectra of the NV centre at 77 K. The zero-phonon line
(ZPL) of the NV centre appears as a sharp line at
637.5 nm with a half width of 4.7 meV which is broad-
ened inhomogeneously due to the internal random strain
[S]. Generally, color centres with a vibronic spectrum
have the possibility to make a laser [6]. The lumines-
cence decay time is one of the important parameters
involved in the lasing of color centres.
The luminescence decay time has been measured in a

Genetic disease : Chromosomic translocation t(11;22) (q24;q12) ➡ fusion of the EWS gene with the transcription factor gene Fli-1➡ chimeric transcript and chimeric oncogenic protein EWS-Fli-1
expression of EWS-Fli protein responsible for
cell proliferation

Principle: Inhibition of EWS-FLI 1 oncogene expression by short interfering RNA (siRNA) targeting and then degrading the corresponding mRNA

Endosomal escape
siRNA(negatively charged)
fND(positively charged)
Problem: siRNA does not enter spontaneously into cell delivery ⇒ vehicle necessary

Summary and prospects✓ ND (size<35 nm) containing NV color centers are bright and
reliable (perfectly photostable) markers
✓ ND are spontaneously internalised in HeLa cell, as individual nanoparticles
‣ Only 20% of internalised ND are trapped in endosomes: the others are free to diffuse in the cytosol
‣ Internalization mechanism is clathrin mediated endocytosis
✓ ND are spontaneously internalized by primary neurons
24
Prospects: superresolution imaging of ND by STED microscopy: application in neurobiology (dendritic spines morphology, dentrite and axon trafficking...)
