Abstract

Our group recently discovered bright, stable, linearly polarized, and high-purity sources of single-photon emission at room temperature in SiN. Currently, we study the possibility of generating indistinguishable photons by plasmonic speed-up of photoemission, which may enable broader applications of SiN single-photon sources in quantum information technology. The enhancement of the light-matter interaction with plasmonic materials can shorten the spontaneous emission time to beat the dephasing time and achieve coherence even at non-cryogenic temperatures. Our findings spark further studies of quantum emitters toward deeper understanding of their nature, deterministic formation, and scalable integration with on-chip quantum photonic circuitry.
