Quantum networks are promising for applications such as secure communication and distributed quantum computing. Diamond color center qubits like the Tin-Vacancy (SnV) center are excellent node candidates, but they have limited collectable coherent photon emission. Integration into a tunable, open microcavity can boost collection and coherent emission via the Purcell effect. We report on our results of coupling individual SnV centers to the microcavity. We achieve significant Purcell-enhancement, evidenced through lifetime reduction and linewidth broadening and demonstrate the first SnV-induced cavity transmission dip, which reaches 50 % on resonance. This effect is characterized depending on cavity detuning and probe power, and we show bunching in the photon statistics of the transmitted light. A detailed quantum optical model is used to explain the data. These results outline a key element for cavity quantum optics experiments and for efficient spin-photon interfaces.
