本工作提出了一种经济高效的方法,用于收集金刚石纳米颗粒中单个氮-空位中心发射的单光子。共聚焦激光扫描显微镜的传统部件,如显微镜物镜和压电平移台,被两个价格低廉的蓝光光盘光学读取头所取代。采用Hanbury Brown和Twiss装置来识别单光子发射。所提出的方法成本低且结构简单,降低了量子技术中单光子研究的入门门槛。这使得学校能够开展学生实验室实验或演示实验,并表明高效的量子光源可以由符合成熟工业流程的标准组件制成。
英文摘要:
This work presents a cost-effective method for collecting single photons emitted from single nitrogen-vacancy centers in nanodiamonds. Conventional components of a confocal laser-scanning microscope, such as microscope objectives and the piezo translation stages, are replaced by two affordable Blu-ray optical pickup units. A Hanbury Brown and Twiss setup is used to identify single photon emission. The proposed approach is inexpensive and simple and lowers the entry-level to single photon research for quantum technologies. This enables student lab experiments or demonstration experiments at schools and shows that efficient sources of quantum light can be made from standard components compatible with established industry processes.
