Colour centres in diamond have proven their suitability for applications in quantum information processing. While the nitrogen-vacancy centre (NV) offers milliseconds spin-coherence times at room temperature, the silicon-vacancy (SiV) centre shows superior optical properties such as negligible spectral diffusion and high photon emission rates into its zero phonon line. Phonon mediated effects that have been identified as the source of decoherence in the SiV centre can be supressed for the negatively charged tin-vacancy (SnV(-)) centre due to its larger ground state splitting rendering it a promising candidate for reaching long spin-coherence times already at liquid helium temperatures. We present the SnV(-) centre's optical properties such as lifetime, polarization as well as the temperature dependence of linewidth, line shift and Debye-Waller factor. Furthermore we show lifetime-limited transition linewidths and investigations on the charge state stability under resonant excitation and spectral diffusion of single centres.
