Silicon carbide (SiC) is the gold standard material for high power electronics thanks to outstanding thermal conductivity, breakdown voltage, and a large bandgap energy.

Recently, the SiC platform has also been identified to be very promising for quantum information distribution tasks [1]. In this regard, a critical requirement is stable optical emission of indistinguishable photons through which multiple spintronics systems can be reliably entangled via optical interference [2].

Here, we will show our recent efforts in measuring two-photon indistinguishability of single V1 centres in 4H-SiC via Hong, Ou and Mandel interference. Our results show that the V1 centre in 4H-SiC is a prime candidate for realising memory-assisted quantum network applications using semiconductor-based spin-to-photon interfaces and coherently coupled electron/nuclear spins.

We will additionally discuss near-term reachable network scenarios, and achievable performance parameters.
