Abstract

Photoluminescence (PL) spectra of single nitrogen vacancy (NV) centers in 50-nm diamond nanocrystals at the zero-phonon line (ZPL) were directly observed using a Fabry-Perot interferometer at cryogenic temperatures. The narrowest linewidth of ZPL was 1.2 GHz (1.9±0.7 GHz on average), comparable to ZPL linewidths in PL spectra reported for NV centers in pure bulk diamond. This observation is important to the application of NV centers for use in quantum communication and computation devices, and in nano-sensing.

  30. The error was the square root of the sample variance of the 7-NV data, and not the unbiased sample variance, since our pre-selection excluded NV centers having excessively large ZPL linewidths, on account of which they could not be detected by the FP interferometer.

The error was the square root of the sample variance of the 7-NV data, and not the unbiased sample variance, since our pre-selection excluded NV centers having excessively large ZPL linewidths, on account of which they could not be detected by the FP interferometer.
