Ultrafast solid-state single-photon sources are desirable in quantum information science and fundamental quantum optics. Currently, we have developed techniques for the fabrication and optical characterization of single-photon sources based on silicon-vacancy (SiV) color centers in diamond [1]. We have experimentally shown that plasmonic gold nano-cones enhance the radiative decay rate by more than three orders of magnitude and boost the efficiency of quantum emitters [2]. We fabricate gold nano-cones on a commercially available atomic force microscopy probe by gold deposition followed by focused ion beam milling. The SiV centers are shallow-implanted in thin diamond membrane to provide the required dimension for near-field interaction in a controlled manner. Theoretical calculations show that the fabricated nano-cones can provide more than four orders of magnitude enhancement in the Purcell factor and a quantum efficiency of 80% [3]. References:[1] S.
