Concerning the scalability of quantum information and networking applications, colour centers in silicon carbide (SiC) have proven to be promising candidates. The successful implementation of a quantum repeater requires a high-quality spin-photon entanglement interface.Our recent work on silicon vacancy centres in SiC showed spin-controlled indistinguishable and distinguishable photon emission through Hong-Ou-Mandel interference experiments. Here, I will show our current work on developing the necessary setup infrastructure for realising spin-photon entanglement generation. To ensure transform limited photon emission over long times, a high-finesse filter cavity was developed. A cross-polarised sub-nanosecond-pulsed excitation-emission setup was implemented to efficiently reject laser noise by more than 7 orders of magnitude. Finally, an unbalanced fibre interferometer was set up to analyse photonic time-bin quantum states. For all systems, active monitoring and stabilisation feedback is provided through a Python computer code. Our successful setup implementation paves the way for future spin-photon entanglement experiments with colour centres in an industrial semiconductor platform.
