Abstract:Nanocrystalline diamond thin (thickness of 100–500
nm) films
with ensembles of negatively charged light-emitting silicon vacancy
(SiV) centers might find an application in the field of photonics
or biosensing due to their scalable and low-price fabrication process
in comparison with monocrystalline diamond. The potential application
of diamond thin films is, however, limited due to the presence of
radiative and nonradiative defects. The former type is a source of
an unwanted background in the photoluminescence… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
