Photoluminescence excitation and spectral hole burning spectroscopy of silicon vacancy centers in diamond
Carsten Arend, Jonas Nils Becker, Hadwig Sternschulte +2
Silicon-vacancy (SiV) centers in diamond are promising systems for quantum information applications due to their bright single photon emission and optically accessible spin states.…
Ultrafast, all-optical coherent control of single silicon vacancy colour centres in diamond
Jonas Nils Becker, Johannes Görlitz, Carsten Arend +2
Recently, the negatively charged silicon vacancy centre (SiV) in diamond has emerged as a novel promising system for quantum information processing (QIP) due to its superior spectr…
Site selective growth of heteroepitaxial diamond nanoislands containing single SiV centers
Carsten Arend, Patrick Appel, Jonas Nils Becker +7
We demonstrate the controlled preparation of heteroepitaxial diamond nano- and microstructures on silicon wafer based iridium films as hosts for single color centers. Our approach…
All-optical formation of coherent dark states of silicon-vacancy spins in diamond
Benjamin Pingault, Jonas N. Becker, Carsten H. H. Schulte +7
Spin impurities in diamond can be versatile tools for a wide range of solid-state-based quantum technologies, but finding spin impurities which offer sufficient quality in both pho…
Deterministic coupling of a single silicon-vacancy color center to a photonic crystal cavity in diamond
Janine Riedrich-Möller, Carsten Arend, Christoph Pauly +5
Deterministic coupling of single solid-state emitters to nanocavities is the key for integrated quantum information devices. We here fabricate a photonic crystal cavity around a pr…
Evaluation of nitrogen- and silicon-vacancy defect centres as single photon sources in quantum key distribution
Matthias Leifgen, Tim Schröder, Friedemann Gädeke +8
We demonstrate a quantum key distribution (QKD) testbed for room temperature single photon sources based on defect centres in diamond. A BB84 protocol over a short free-space trans…
