Lukin. 2010. Deterministic coupling of a single nitrogen vacancy center to a photonic crystal cavity. Nano Letters 10(10): 3922–3926.1530-69921530-6984http://nrs.harvard.edu/urn-3:HUL.InstRepos:8253505We describe and experimentally demonstrate a technique for deterministic, large coupling between a photonic crystal (PC) nanocavity and single photon emitters. The technique is based on in situ scanning of a PC cavity over a sample and allows the precise positioning of the cavity over a desired emitter with nanoscale resolution. The power of the technique is demonstrated by coupling the PC nanocavity to a single nitrogen vacancy (NV) center in diamond, an emitter system that provides optically accessible electron and nuclear spin qubits.en-USdiamondqubitspin dynamicscavity QEDphotonic crystalquantum physicsatomic physicsopticsnitrogen-vacancy centerJournal Article2012-02-2410.1021/nl101662v
