Quantum photonics technologies require a scalable approach for integration of non-classical light sources with photonic resonators to achieve strong light confinement and enhancement of quantum light emission. Point defects from hexagonal Boron Nitride (hBN) are amongst the front runners for single photon sources due to their ultra bright emission, however, coupling of hBN defects to photonic crystal cavities has so far remained elusive. Here we demonstrate on-chip integration of hBN quantum emitters with photonic crystal cavities from silicon nitride (Si3N4) and achieve experimentally measured Q-factor of 3,300 for hBN/Si3N4 hybrid cavities. We observed 9-fold photoluminescence enhancement of a hBN single photon emission at room temperature. Our work paves the way towards hybrid integrated quantum photonics with hBN, and outlines an excellent path for further development of cavity quantum electrodynamic experiments and on-chip integration of 2D materials.

Development of scalable quantum photonic technologies requires on-chip integration of components such as photonic crystal cavities and waveguides with nonclassical light sources. Recently, hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) has emerged as a promising plat
form for nanophotonics, following reports of hyperbolic phonon-polaritons and optically stable, ultra-bright quantum emitters. However, exploitation of hBN in scalable, on-chip nanophotonic circuits, quantum information processing and cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED) experiments requires robust techniques for the fabrication of monolithic optical resonators. In this letter, we design and engineer high quality photonic crystal cavities from hBN. We employ two approaches based on a focused ion beam method and a minimally-invasive electron beam induced etching (EBIE) technique to fabricate suspended two dimensional (2D) and one dimensional (1D) cavities with quality (Q) factors in excess of 2,000. Subsequently, we show deterministic, iterative tuning of individual cavities by direct-write, single-step EBIE without significant degradation of the Q-factor. The demonstration of tunable, high Q cavities made from hBN is an unprecedented advance in nanophotonics based on van der Waals materials. Our results and hBN processing methods open up promising new avenues for solid-state systems with applications in integrated quantum photonics, polaritonics and cavity QED experiments.
We report on high efficency coupling of individual air-suspended carbon nanotubes to silicon photonic crystal nanobeam cavities. Photoluminescence images of dielectric- and air-mode cavities reflect their distinctly different mode profiles and show t
hat fields in the air are important for coupling. We find that the air-mode cavities couple more efficiently, and estimated spontaneous emission coupling factors reach a value as high as 0.85. Our results demonstrate advantages of ultralow mode-volumes in air-mode cavities for coupling to low-dimensional nanoscale emitters.
Hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) is gaining interest for potential applications in integrated quantum nanophotonics. Yet, to establish hBN as an integrated photonic platform several cornerstones must be established, including the integration and couplin
g of quantum emitters to photonic waveguides. Supported by simulations, we study the approach of monolithic integration, which is expected to have coupling efficiencies that are 4 times higher than those of a conventional hybrid stacking strategy. We then demonstrate the fabrication of such devices from hBN and showcase the successful integration of hBN single photon emitters with a monolithic waveguide. We demonstrate coupling of single photons from the quantum emitters to the waveguide modes and on-chip detection. Our results build a general framework for monolithically integrated hBN single photon emitter and will facilitate future works towards on-chip integrated quantum photonics with hBN.
In the field of quantum photon sources, single photon emitter from solid is of fundamental importance for quantum computing, quantum communication, and quantum metrology. However, it has been an ultimate but seemingly distant goal to find the single
photon sources that stable at room or high temperature, with high-brightness and broad ranges emission wavelength that successively cover ultraviolet to infrared in one host material. Here, we report an ultraviolet to near-infrared broad-spectrum single photon emitters (SPEs) based on a wide band-gap semiconductor material hexagonal boron nitride (hBN). The bright, high purity and stable SPEs with broad-spectrum are observed by using the resonant excitation technique. The single photon sources here can be operated at liquid helium, room temperature and even up to 1100 K. Depending on the excitation laser wavelengths, the SPEs can be dramatically observed from 357 nm to 896 nm. The single photon purity is higher than to 90 percentage and the narrowest linewidth of SPE is down to $sim$75 $mu$eV at low temperature, which reaches the resolution limit of our spectrometer. Our work not only paves a way to engineer a monolithic semiconductor tunable SPS, but also provides fundamental experimental evidence to understand the electronic and crystallographic structure of SPE defect states in hBN.
We demonstrate room temperature visible wavelength photoluminescence from In0.5Ga0.5As quantum dots embedded in a GaP membrane. Time-resolved above band photoluminescence measurements of quantum dot emission show a biexpontential decay with lifetimes
of ~200 ps. We fabricate photonic crystal cavities which provide enhanced outcoupling of quantum dot emission, allowing the observation of narrow lines indicative of single quantum dot emission. This materials system is compatible with monolithic integration on Si, and is promising for high efficiency detection of single quantum dot emission as well as optoelectronic devices emitting at visible wavelengths.
