There is significant interest in potential experimental tests of macroscopic quantum effects, both to test potential modifications to quantum theory and to probe the quantum nature of gravity. A proposed platform with which to generate the required macroscopic quantum spatial superposition is a nanodiamond containing a negatively charged nitrogen vacancy (NV-) centre. In this review, methods to fabricate nanodiamonds containing NVsuitable for these quantum applications are discussed. The proposed probes of the macroscopic limits of quantum theory are presented along with the spin physics of the NV- centre relevant to those tests.
