• Abstract summary: We investigate the effects of a novel approach to diamond nanofabrication on the optical linewidth of the NV zero-phonon line (ZPL) We examine three post-implanted samples, one implanted with $14$N and two with $15$N isotopes. We find that NV centers formed from nitrogen naturally occuring in the diamond lattice are characterized by a linewidth distribution peaked at an optical linewidth nearly two orders of magnitude smaller than the distribution characterizing most of the NV centers formed from implanted nitrogen.

• Abstract: We investigate the effects of a novel approach to diamond nanofabrication and nitrogen vacancy (NV) center formation on the optical linewidth of the NV zero-phonon line (ZPL). In this post-implantation method, nitrogen is implanted after all fabrication processes have been completed. We examine three post-implanted samples, one implanted with $^{14}$N and two with $^{15}$N isotopes. We perform photoluminescence excitation (PLE) spectroscopy to assess optical linewidths and optically detected magnetic resonance (ODMR) measurements to isotopically classify the NV centers. From this, we find that NV centers formed from nitrogen naturally occuring in the diamond lattice are characterized by a linewidth distribution peaked at an optical linewidth nearly two orders of magnitude smaller than the distribution characterizing most of the NV centers formed from implanted nitrogen. Surprisingly, we also observe a number of $^{15}$NV centers with narrow ($<500\,\mathrm{MHz}$) linewidths, implying that implanted nitrogen can yield NV centers with narrow optical linewidths. We further use a Bayesian approach to statistically model the linewidth distributions, to accurately quantify the uncertainty of fit parameters in our model, and to predict future linewidths within a particular sample. Our model is designed to aid comparisons between samples and research groups, in order to determine the best methods of achieving narrow NV linewidths in structured samples.

  The nitrogen-vacancy center (NV) in diamond is increasingly used as a quantum sensor and as a building block for quantum networks. We demonstrate that implantation of carbon ions yields a comparable density of NVs as implantation of nitrogen ions. We propose a modified NV creation procedure in which the implantation is carried out after instead of before the diamond fabrication processes.

We observe that amorphous regions are more likely to contain oxygen vacancies and exhibit weaker bonds between the niobium and oxygen atoms.
