Spontaneous emission and collection efficiency enhancement of single emitters in diamond via plasmonic cavities and gratings
We demonstrate an approach, based on plasmonic apertures and gratings, to enhance the radiative decay rate of single nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond while simultaneously improving their collection efficiency. Our structures are based on metallic resonators formed by surrounding sub-wavelength diamond nanoposts with a silver film, which can enhance the …
