Lead-vacancy centers in diamond as building blocks for large-scale quantum networks - EurekAlert


<p><strong>A lead-vacancy (PbV) center in diamond has been developed as a quantum emitter for large-scale quantum networks by researchers from Tokyo Tech. This innovative color center exhibits a sharp zero-phonon-line and emits photons with specific frequencies. The PbV color center stands out among other diamond color centers due to its ability to maintain optical properties at relatively high temperatures of 16 K. This makes it well-suited for transferring quantum information in large-scale quantum networks.</strong></p>
