  9. Narrowband, room-temperature single photon emitters based on silicon-vacancy centers in diamond nanocrystals produced by a wet-milling process

    Talk
    in Nanodiamonds, Silicon Vacancy Centers and Wet-Milling

    We report a technique to produce SiV centers in nanodiamonds exploiting a wet-milling process to produce nanodiamonds containing single SiV centers. The observed zero-phonon-lines include linewidths as narrow as 0.95 nm. The center wavelengths of the zero-phonon-lines vary among SiV centers in distinct nanodiamonds, resulting in an overall distribution accumulating at approximately 740 nm.
