Single SiV${}^{-}$ centers in low-strain nanodiamonds with bulk-like spectral properties and nano-manipulation capabilities

Lachlan J. Rogers, Ou Wang, Yan Liu +7

We report on the isolation of single SiV${}^{-}$ centers in nanodiamonds. We observe the fine-structure of single SiV${}^{-}$ center with improved inhomogeneous ensemble linewidth below th…
