We study the applicability of the time-optimal bang-bang control designed for spin $\frac{1}{2}$ [Boscain and Mason, J. Math. Phys. 47, 062101 (2006)] to the rotation of the electron spin of a nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center in diamond. The spin of the NV center is a three-level system, with two levels forming …
