    • Coupling of NV Centers to Photonic Crystal Nanobeams in Diamond 

      Hausmann, Birgit Judith Maria; Shields, Brendan John; Quan, Qimin; Chu, Yiwen; de Leon, Nathalie Pulmones; Evans, Ruffin Eley; Burek, Michael John; Zibrov, Alexander S; Markham, M.; Twitchen, D. J.; Park, Hongkun; Lukin, Mikhail D.; Loncar, Marko (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2013)
      The realization of efficient optical interfaces for solid-state atom-like systems is an important problem in quantum science with potential applications in quantum communications and quantum information processing. We ...
    • Free-Standing Mechanical and Photonic Nanostructures in Single-Crystal Diamond 

      Burek, Michael John; de Leon, Nathalie Pulmones; Shields, Brendan John; Hausmann, Birgit Judith Maria; Chu, Yiwen; Quan, Qimin; Zibrov, Alexander S; Park, Hongkun; Lukin, Mikhail D.; Loncar, Marko (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2012)
      A variety of nanoscale photonic, mechanical, electronic, and optoelectronic devices require scalable thin film fabrication. Typically, the device layer is defined by thin film deposition on a substrate of a different ...
    • Properties of Nitrogen-Vacancy Centers in Diamond: The Group Theoretic Approach 

      Maze, Jeronimo R.; Gali, Adam; Togan, Emre; Chu, Yiwen; Trifonov, Alexei; Kaxiras, Efthimios; Lukin, Mikhail D. (Institute of Physics, 2011)
      We present a procedure that makes use of group theory to analyze and predict the main properties of the negatively charged nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center in diamond. We focus on the relatively low temperature limit where ...
    • Quantum Interference of Single Photons from Remote Nitrogen-Vacancy Centers in Diamond 

      Sipahigil, Alp; Goldman, Michael Lurie; Togan, E; Chu, Yiwen; Markham, M.; Twitchen, D. J.; Zibrov, Alexander S; Kubanek, Alexander; Lukin, Mikhail D. (American Physical Society (APS), 2012)
      We demonstrate quantum interference between indistinguishable photons emitted by two nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in distinct diamond samples separated by two meters. Macroscopic solid immersion lenses are used to enhance ...
    • Quantum optics with atom-like systems in diamond 

      Chu, Yiwen (2014-06-06)
      The nitrogen vacancy (NV) center in diamond is a unique quantum system that combines solid state spin qubits with coherent optical transitions. The spin states of the NV center can be initialized, read out, and controlled ...
