Abstract
This study presents a detailed investigation into the fluorescence properties of color centers in single-crystal diamond needles (SCDNs) synthesized via chemical vapor deposition. Using steady-state and time-resolved photoluminescence (PL) techniques, we identified color centers with zero-phonon lines at 389 nm, 468 nm, 575 nm (NV0), 637 nm (NV-), and 738 nm (SiV-). PL excitation spectroscopy conducted at room temperature revealed the complex electronic structure of some of these centers, paving the way for further investigation into their fluorescence properties. Lifetime measurements were performed for each center, with the 389 nm one exhibiting the longest decay time (∼30 ns), which is advantageous for enhancing quantum coherence, improving photon emission efficiency, and reducing power consumption. Altogether, these findings highlight the potential of SCDNs for quantum applications and confirm their promise as a platform for next-generation photonic and quantum devices.
期刊介绍：
The journal aims to publish papers at the forefront of nanoscale science and technology and especially those of an interdisciplinary nature. Here, nanotechnology is taken to include the ability to individually address, control, and modify structures, materials and devices with nanometre precision, and the synthesis of such structures into systems of micro- and macroscopic dimensions such as MEMS based devices. It encompasses the understanding of the fundamental physics, chemistry, biology and technology of nanometre-scale objects and how such objects can be used in the areas of computation, sensors, nanostructured materials and nano-biotechnology.
