• Abstract: Resonance fluorescence from a quantum emitter is an ideal source to extract indistinguishable photons. By using the cross polarization to suppress the laser scattering, we observed resonance fluorescence from GeV color centers in diamond at cryogenic temperature. The Fourier-transform-limited linewidth emission with $T_2/2T_1\sim0.86$ allows for two-photon interference based on single GeV color center. Under pulsed excitation, the 24 ns separated photons exhibit a Hong-Ou-Mandel visibility of $0.604\pm0.022$, while the continuous-wave excitation leads to a coalescence time window of 1.05 radiative lifetime. Together with single-shot readout of spin states, it paves the way towards building a quantum network with GeV color centers in diamond.

• Cavity-assisted resonance fluorescence from a nitrogen-vacancy center in diamond [0.0]
  The nitrogen-vacancy center in diamond is an attractive resource for the generation of remote entangled states. Here, we couple a nitrogen-vacancy center with a narrow extrinsically broadened linewidth, hosted in a micron-thin membrane, to the mode of an open optical microcavity. The resulting Purcell factor of $sim$1.8 increases the fraction of zero-phonon line photons to above 44%, leading to coherent photon emission rates exceeding four times the state of the art.

  We report the coherent optical property of a single negatively-charged lead-vacancy center in diamond. Photoluminescence excitation measurements reveal stable fluorescence with a linewidth of 39 MHz at 6 K, close to the transform-limit estimated from the lifetime measurement. Due to the suppressed phonon absorption in the PbV center, we observe nearly transform-limited photon emission up to 16 K, demonstrating its high temperature compared to other color centers in diamond.

  Quantum emitters in hexagonal Boron Nitride (hBN) were recently reported to hol a homogeneous linewidth according to the Fourier-Transform limit up to room temperature. This unusual observation was traced back to decoupling from in-plane phonon modes which can arise if the emitter is located between two planes of the hBN host material.
