- Abstract: Silicon color centers have recently emerged as promising candidates for
commercial quantum technology, yet their interaction with electric fields has
yet to be investigated. In this paper, we demonstrate electrical manipulation
of telecom silicon color centers by fabricating lateral electrical diodes with
an integrated G center ensemble in a commercial silicon on insulator wafer. The
ensemble optical response is characterized under application of a
reverse-biased DC electric field, observing both 100% modulation of
fluorescence signal, and wavelength redshift of approximately 1.4 GHz/V above a
threshold voltage. Finally, we use G center fluorescence to directly image the
electric field distribution within the devices, obtaining insight into the
spatial and voltage-dependent variation of the junction depletion region and
the associated mediating effects on the ensemble. Strong correlation between
emitter-field coupling and generated photocurrent is observed. Our
demonstration enables electrical control and stabilization of semiconductor
quantum emitters.

We propose an electromechanical scheme where the electronic degrees of freedom of boron vacancy color centers hosted by a hexagonal boron nitride nanoribbon are coupled for quantum information processing.
We show that despite the thermal noise introduced through the vibrations one can achieve steady-state entanglement between two and more number of qubits that survives even at room temperature.
Given the steady-state nature of the proposed scheme and accessibility of the electronic states through optical fields, our work paves the way for the realization of steady-state quantum information processing.

waveguides: Towards an integrated, GHz-rate telecom photon pair source [47.399953444625154]
semiconductor integrated sources of photon pairs may operate at pump wavelengths much closer to the bandgap of the materials.
We show that devices operating near the long wavelength end of the S-band or the short C-band require temporal filtering shorter than 1 ns.
We predict that shifting the operating wavelengths to the L-band and making small adjustments in the material composition will reduce the amount of photoluminescence to negligible values.
