Waveguide-integrated single-crystalline GaP resonators on diamond.
Large-scale entanglement of nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond will require integration of NV centers with optical networks. Toward this goal, we present the fabrication of single-crystalline gallium phosphide (GaP) resonator-waveguide coupled structures on diamond. We demonstrate coupling between 1 μm diameter GaP disk resonators and waveguides with a loaded Q factor of 3,800, and evalua...
متن کاملQuantum Nonlinear Optics with a Germanium-Vacancy Color Center in a Nanoscale Diamond Waveguide.
We demonstrate a quantum nanophotonics platform based on germanium-vacancy (GeV) color centers in fiber-coupled diamond nanophotonic waveguides. We show that GeV optical transitions have a high quantum efficiency and are nearly lifetime broadened in such nanophotonic structures. These properties yield an efficient interface between waveguide photons and a single GeV center without the use of a ...
متن کاملSupplemental material for: Efficient photon detection from color centers in a diamond optical waveguide
To estimate the expected efficiency of the sidecollection technique, we begin by calculating the fraction of NV fluorescence confined within the diamond by total internal reflection (TIR) on first incidence of the emitted photons with the planar diamond chip surface. This fraction depends upon the angle of the emission dipole with respect to the assumed (100) polished surfaces of the diamond ch...
متن کاملIntegrated diamond networks for quantum nanophotonics.
We demonstrate an integrated nanophotonic network in diamond, consisting of a ring resonator coupled to an optical waveguide with grating in- and outcouplers. Using a nitrogen-vacancy color center embedded inside the ring resonator as a source of photons, single photon generation and routing at room temperature is observed. Furthermore, we observe a large overall photon extraction efficiency (1...
متن کاملMetamaterials and Transformation Optics for Single-photon Emitters
We have experimentally demonstrated the broadband enhancement of single-photon emission from nanodiamond NV centers coupled to planar multilayer metamaterial with hyperbolic dispersion. A tapered metamaterial waveguide for efficient outcoupling of high-k metamaterial modes has been numerically studied and fabricated. Introduction: The major thrust of research in quantum photonics is to build qu...
