Cavity QED of NV Centers in Diamond Nanopillars

Abstract

The main objective of this project is to exploit the exceptional spin properties of nitrogen vacancy (NV) centers in diamond to develop a quantum network based on cavity QED of NV centers. While spectacular advances have been made in using RF transitions of NV centers for coherent electron and nuclear spin control, there are considerable challenges for exploiting optical transitions in NV centers. Optical transitions of typical NV centers exhibit excessive spectral fluctuations except for NV centers in ultrahigh purity diamond crystals. To circumvent these difficulties, we have developed a composite microcavity system, in which NV centers in diamond nanopillars couple to whispering gallery modes of the silica resonator.
