We describe the coherent interaction between a defect spin at the interface of a ferromagnet and a non-magnetic material, under bias and when the magnetization of the ferromagnetic contact precesses during ferromagnetic resonance. The magnet filters charge carriers by preferentially allowing in parallel spins, which leads to a dynamic spin accumulation on the defect. Local effective fields acting on the defect spin site modify the defect spin's precession, which also modifies the charge current through the defect. This new form of current-detected spin resonance reveals the local environment of the defect, and thus can yield the defect identity.
