Two-Emitter Multimode Cavity Quantum Electrodynamics in Thin-Film Silicon Carbide Photonics
Abstract
Color centers are point defects in crystals that can provide an optical interface to a long-lived spin state for distributed quantum information processing applications. An outstanding challenge for color center quantum technologies is the integration of optically-coherent emitters into scalable thin-film photonics, a prerequisite for large-scale photonics integration of color centers within a commercial foundry process. Here, we report on the integration of near-transform-limited silicon vacancy (VSi) defects into microdisk resonators fabricated in a CMOS-compatible 4H-Silicon Carbide-on-Insulator platform. We demonstrate a single-emitter cooperativity of up to 0.8 as well as optical superradiance from a pair of color centers coupled to the same cavity mode. We investigate the effect of multimode interference on the photon scattering dynamics from this multi-emitter cavity quantum electrodynamics system. These results are crucial for the development of quantum networks in silicon carbide and bridge the classical-quantum photonics gap by uniting optically-coherent spin defects with wafer-scalable, state-of-the-art photonics.
