Effect of nanopillar sidewall angle on photon collection efficiency in diamond emitters
Abstract:
Nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond are
valuable for quantum computing, sensing, and secure
communication due to their stable room-temperature operation.
However, efficient photon collection is limited by diamonds
high refractive index, leading to significant internal reflection.
This work investigates how varying the sidewall angle of
diamond nanopillars can affect photon collection efficiency,
using finite element method (FEM) simulations. Results indicate
that nanopillars with sidewall angles near 90 degrees optimize
collection for x-oriented dipoles, while y-oriented dipoles
perform best around 86 degrees. NV center depth within the
nanopillar also affects efficiency, with certain depths favoring
specific angles. Our findings show that angled sidewalls can
enhance photon collection while also provide greater structural
stability compared to vertical designs, offering a practical
pathway to improve NV center-based quantum devices
