Abstract:
Single photon emitters (SPEs) are a key component for their use as pure photon source in quantum technologies. In this study, we investigate the generation of SPEs from drop-casted hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) nanoflakes, examining the influence of the immersion solution and the source of hBN. We show that, depending on the utilized supplier and solution the number and quality of the emitters changes. We perform a comprehensive optical characterization of the deposited nanoflakes to assess the quality of the generated SPEs. We show quantitative data on SPE yields, highlighting significant variations among solvents and different sources of hBN. This holds particular significance for employing drop-casted nanoflakes as SPE sources in quantum communication, sensing, and imaging. Our method is easily expandable to all kinds of surfaces and can be done without requiring complex fabrication steps and equipment, thus providing the necessary scalability required for industrial quantum applications.
