Abstract

Important features in the spectral and temporal photoluminescence excitation of single nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond are reported at conditions relevant for quantum applications. Bidirectional switching occurs between the neutral (NV0) and negatively charged (NV−) states. Luminescence of NV− is most efficiently triggered at a wavelength of 575 nm which ensures optimum excitation and recharging of NV0. The dark state of NV− is identified as NV0. A narrow resonance is observed in the excitation spectra at 521 nm, which mediates efficient conversion to NV0.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
