Interacting resonators can lead to strong non-linearities but the details can be complicated to predict. In this work, we study the non-linearities introduced by two nested microcavities that interact with nitrogen vacancy centers in a diamond waveguide. Each cavity has differently designed resonance; one in the green and one in the infrared. The magnetic-field dependence of the nitrogen vacancy center absorption rates on the green and the recently observed infrared transitions allows us to propose a scalable on-chip magnetometer that combines high magnetic-field sensitivity and micrometer spatial resolution. By investigating the system behaviors over several intrinsic and extrinsic parameters, we explain the main non-linearities induced by the NV centers and enhanced by the cavities. We finally show that the cavities can improve the magnetic-field sensitivity by up to two orders of magnitudes.
