Experimental characterization of spin- 32 silicon vacancy centers in 6H -SiC

Abstract: Silicon carbide (SiC) hosts many interesting defects that can potentially serve as qubits for a range of advanced quantum technologies. Some of them have very interesting properties, making them potentially useful, e.g. as interfaces between stationary and flying qubits. Here we present a detailed overview of the relevant properties of the spins in silicon vacancies of the 6H-SiC polytype. This includes the temperature-dependent photoluminescence, optically detected magnetic resonance (ODMR) and the relaxation… Show more

“…Based on recent low magnetic field measurements on the silicon vacancy center in SiC, T 1 (T ) is in the range of 100 µs at room temperature. 21,40 In order to obtain a measurable magnetic field dependent signal, the dipole-dipole interaction induced spin relaxation time T 1 (B) needs to be at least in the same order of magnitude. For the V1 (V2) center this can be achieved at low magnetic field strength by using C = 10 17 cm −3 (C = 3 × 10 17 cm −3 ) spin-1/2 defect concentration in the host material.…”

“…However, since the number of nuclear spins that interact with the electron is very large, these small contributions can add up to very large effects. The first is a dephasing effect: due to statistical fluctuations ("spin noise", Sleator et al, 1985;Oestreich et al, 2005), the electron interacts with a fluctuating environment that can result in dephasing of the electron spin.…”

“…Optical Properties of VV 0 and NV − Centers in SiC Three of the most studied defects in SiC are SiV -, VV 0 , and NV − centers. [14,15,26,[91][92][93] While the SiV − centers emission is around 900 nm, [92,93] the latter two give emissions ranging from 1000 to 1300 nm. [27,73,81] The axial centers have the same symmetry (C 3v ) as the diamond NV − centers, but the basal centers have a lower symmetry (C 1h ).…”
