摘要

Abstract

The silicon vacancy (SiV) color centers in diamond have significant potential in the fields of quantum information

nanophotonics

bioimaging and sensing

due to its good structural stability at room temperature

strong photostability

short luminescence lifetime

narrow zero-phonon line bandwidth

and avoidance of biological autofluorescence. They have attracted extensive attention and in-depth research from researchers. The applications of SiV color centers in the above areas require addressing key issues such as control over the number and charge state of SiV color centers in diamond

as well as improving the luminous efficiency. Therefore

this review summarizes some recent relevant research progress

including common methods for preparing SiV color centers

control over their luminescence intensity

preparation of SiV single-photon sources

and research on the control of SiV color center charge states. Based on these

an outlook is provided for the preparation and application of SiV color centers in diamond.
