Abstract

We propose a novel source of non-classical light consisting of plasmonic aperture with single-crystal diamond containing a single Nitrogen-Vacancy (NV) color center. Theoretical calculations of optimal structures show that these devices can simultaneously enhance optical pumping by a factor of 7, spontaneous emission rates by Fp ~50 (Purcell factor), and offer collection efficiencies up to 40%. These excitation and collection enhancements occur over a broad range of wavelengths (~30nm), and are independently tunable with device geometry, across the excitation (~530nm) and emission (~600-800nm) spectrum of the NV center. Implementing this system with top-down techniques in bulk diamond crystals will provide a scalable architecture for a myriad of diamond NV center applications.

Fig. 1 3-dimensional cross section of the plasmonic resonators that we consider in this work. The structures consist of circular diamond nanowires containing an NV center. The diamond nanowire is radially surrounded by silver. (a) The structure is surrounded by air on top and bottom. (b) A cylindrical diamond nanowire of finite height surrounded radially by silver. The structure is surrounded by air on top and by diamond on bottom. NV center is excited from the top side and photons are also collected from the top side. (c) The plasmonic resonator is on the bottom side of the diamond crystal. The plasmonic resonator is completely embedded in a thick layer of silver on the bottom side. The collection and excitation directions are shown by the red and green arrows, respectively. (d) Similar to the structure shown in Fig. 1(c). In this case, the plasmonic resonator is surrounded by a single silver ring or multiple silver rings. This configuration improves the collection efficiency.
