Toward control of the quantum state of hBN singlephoton emitters
12:30 - 12:50
Claire Marvinney, Matthew Feldman and Benjamin Lawrie Hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) is a 2D material of interest for quantum photonic and phononic applications because its defect-based single photon emitters are bright, have narrow linewidths, and are stable at room temperature, and because, for isotopically pure samples, the phonon interactions can have ultra-low losses. To create a description of the combined photonic and phononic quantum state in hBN of varying isotopic concentration, measurements of spectrally resolved correlation functions are employed to study the electron-phonon and electron-electron interactions in isotopically enriched and naturally abundant hBN samples.
