Optical signatures of silicon-vacancy spins in diamond
Tina Muller, Christian Hepp, Benjamin Pingault +7
Colour centres in diamond have emerged as versatile tools for solid-state quantum technologies ranging from quantum information to metrology, where the nitrogen-vacancy centre is t…
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…
Low temperature investigations and surface treatments of colloidal narrowband fluorescent nanodiamonds
Elke Neu, Felix Guldner, Carsten Arend +6
We report fluorescence investigations and Raman spectroscopy on colloidal nanodiamonds (NDs) obtained via bead assisted sonic disintegration (BASD) of a polycrystalline chemical va…
