ABSTRACT
Configuration of three different concave silver core-shell nanoresonators was numerically optimized to enhance the excitation and emission of embedded silicon vacancy (SiV) diamond color centers simultaneously. Conditional optimization was performed to ensure ~20-30-40 and 50% apparent quantum efficiency (cQE) of SiV color centers. The enhancement spectra, as well as the near-field and charge distribution were inspected to uncover the underlying nanophotonical phenomena. The conditionally optimized coupled systems were qualified by the product of the radiative rate enhancements at the excitation and emission, which is nominated as P x factor. The optimized spherical core-shell nanoresonator containing a centralized emitter is capable of enhancing the emission considerably via bonding dipolar resonance. The P x factor is 529-fold with 49.7% cQE at the emission. Decentralization of the emitter leads to appearance of higher order nonradiative multipolar modes. Transversal and longitudinal dipolar resonance of the optimized ellipsoidal core-shell resonator was tuned to the excitation and emission, which results in 6.2â105 P x factor with 50.6% cQE at the emission. Rod-shaped concave core-shell nanoresonators exploit similar transversal and longitudinal dipolar resonance, moreover they enhance the fluorescence more significantly due to their antenna-like geometry. P x factor indicating 8.34â105 enhancement is achievable while the cQE is 50.3% at the emission.
