This study demonstrates imaging of the magnetic response to external pressure using a hybrid structure magnetostrictive (MS) layers and nitrogen-vacancy ($\mathrm{N}$-V) centers in diamonds. The MS layer facilitates pressure-to-magnetic field conversion, detected by $\mathrm{N}$-V centers. We use materials comprising in-plane magnetized ${\mathrm{Sm}\mathrm{Fe}}_{2}$ as diamond with perfectly aligned vertical [111] orientation effectively detect conversion. coefficient, defined change...
