ABSTRACT
Quantum sciences are revolutionizing computing and communication technologies, in which single-photon emitters are the key components for creating strong quantum entanglement. Color centers in diamonds in coupled-cavity systems are considered great candidates for the efficient generation of quantum carriers over other solid-state emitters. Owing to the multi-mode nature of high quality factor ( Q) diamond cavities, however, it is a grand challenge to the achievement of single photon emission with high rate and indistinguishability. To this end, a single-mode high- Q diamond cavity is highly desired. Here, we report a diamond mesostructured nanomembrane microcavity of a discrete rotational symmetry that selectively produces the desired single-mode emission in a broad spectrum. The strategic rolling up of a flexible diamond nanomembrane with aligned holes effectively defines the designed symmetry while maintaining the high- Q resonance through the whispering-gallery mode supported in the central hollow microcavity. The demonstrated diamond mesostructured microcavity features a distinct and enhanced single-mode emission, a step toward efficient quantum sources with designed positions or bands for quantum information technology.
