Abstract
We report a cavity-enabled solid-state magnetometer based on an NV ensemble coupled with a dielectric cavity, achieving 12 pT/$\sqrt{\rm{Hz}}$ sensitivity and a nearly threefold gain from multispectral features. The features originate from cavity-induced splitting of the NV hyperfine levels and leverages robust quantum coherence in the doubly dressed states of the system to achieve high sensitivity. We project simulated near-term sensitivities approaching 100 fT/$\sqrt{\rm{Hz}}$, close to the Johnson-Nyquist limit. Our results establish frequency multiplexing as a new operational paradigm, offering a robust and scalable quantum resource for metrology under ambient conditions.
