Rare-earth-doped dielectric crystals proved to be attractive in recent optical and microwave studies in perspective towards quantum computing applications. The dielectric crystal serves as a matrix in which the rare-earth ion's properties are positively enhanced, for example the luminescence quantum yield, the optical and the Zeeman state lifetimes. However, application of grown-doped crystals would imply difficulties in arranging arbitrarily distributed ensembles or single ion qubits on one crystal into a network. We perform focused ion beam implantation as a tool to selectively distribute spins or spin ensembles on a single crystal in a maskless ultra-high-vacuum process [1]. In this work, we present luminescence study of Erbium-implanted Yttrium Orthosilicate (Y2SiO5) crystals with varied process parameters: Implantation temperature, annealing time and annealing atmosphere. The goal of this study is to achieve the most effective implantation method with highest performance of the rare-earth optical and microwave properties.
