Coherence of NV defects in isotopically enriched 6H-28SiC at ambient conditions
The unique spin-optical properties of NV defects in SiC, coupled with silicon carbide's advanced technology compared to diamond, make them a promising candidate for quantum technology applications. In this study, using photoinduced pulse ESR at 94 GHz (3.4 T), we reveal the room temperature spin coherence of NV defects in 6H-28SiC, purified to reduce 29Si concentration to ≈1%, four times below its natural level. We demonstrate room temperature (300 K) Hahn-echo coherence time T2 = 23.6 μs, spin–lattice relaxation time T1 = 0.1 ms, and coherent control over optically polarized NV spin states through Rabi nutation experiments. We reveal long inhomogeneous dephasing time T2* = 1.5 μs, which is about five times greater than that measured for NV defects in SiC with natural isotopic content. Our observations highlight again the potential of NV defects in 6H-28SiC, which exhibit near-infrared optical excitation and emission properties compatible with O-band fiber optics, as promising candidates for applications in quantum sensing, communication, and computation.
期刊介绍:
Applied Physics Letters (APL) features concise, up-to-date reports on significant new findings in applied physics. Emphasizing rapid dissemination of key data and new physical insights, APL offers prompt publication of new experimental and theoretical papers reporting applications of physics phenomena to all branches of science, engineering, and modern technology.
In addition to regular articles, the journal also publishes invited Fast Track, Perspectives, and in-depth Editorials which report on cutting-edge areas in applied physics.
APL Perspectives are forward-looking invited letters which highlight recent developments or discoveries. Emphasis is placed on very recent developments, potentially disruptive technologies, open questions and possible solutions. They also include a mini-roadmap detailing where the community should direct efforts in order for the phenomena to be viable for application and the challenges associated with meeting that performance threshold. Perspectives are characterized by personal viewpoints and opinions of recognized experts in the field.
Fast Track articles are invited original research articles that report results that are particularly novel and important or provide a significant advancement in an emerging field. Because of the urgency and scientific importance of the work, the peer review process is accelerated. If, during the review process, it becomes apparent that the paper does not meet the Fast Track criterion, it is returned to a normal track.
