Silicon vacancies in silicon carbide have been proposed as an alternative to nitrogen vacancy centers in diamonds for spintronics and quantum technologies. An important precondition for these applications is the initialization of the qubits into a specific quantum state. In this work, we study the optical alignment of the spin 3/2 negatively charged silicon vacancy in 6H-SiC. Using a time-resolved optically detected magnetic resonance technique, we coherently control the silicon vacancy spin ensemble and measure Rabi frequencies and spin-lattice relaxation time of all three transitions. Then to study the optical initialization process of the silicon vacancy spin ensemble, the vacancy spin ensemble is prepared in different ground states and optically excited. We describe a simple rate equation model that can explain the observed behaviour and determine the relevant rate constants.

Silicon carbide (SiC) hosts many interesting defects that can potentially serve as qubits for a range of advanced quantum technologies. Some of them have very interesting properties, making them potentially useful, e.g. as interfaces between stationa
ry and flying qubits. Here we present a detailed overview of the relevant properties of the spins in silicon vacancies of the 6H-SiC polytype. This includes the temperature-dependent photoluminescence, optically detected magnetic resonance, and the relaxation times of the longitudinal and transverse components of the spins, during free precession as well as under the influence of different refocusing schemes.
The implementation of quantum networks involving quantum memories and photonic channels without the need for cryogenics would be a major technological breakthrough. Nitrogen-vacancy centers have excellent spin properties even at room temperature, but
phonon-induced broadening makes it challenging to interface these spins with photons at non-cryogenic temperatures. Inspired by recent progress in achieving ultra-high mechanical quality factors, we propose that this challenge can be overcome by spin-opto-mechanical transduction. We quantify the coherence of the interface by calculating the indistinguishability of the emitted photons and describe promising paths towards experimental implementation.
We present and analyze an effective scheme for preparing squeezed spin states in a novel spin-mechanical hybrid device, which is realized by a single crystal diamond waveguide with built-in silicon-vacancy (SiV) centers. After studying the strain cou
plings between the SiV spins and the propagating phonon modes, we show that long-range spin-spin interactions can be achieved under large detuning condition. We model these nonlinear spin-spin couplings with an effective one-axis twisting Hamiltonian, and find that the system can be steered to the squeezed spin states in the practical situations. This work may have interesting applications in high-precision metrology and quantum information.
The silicon vacancy in silicon carbide is a strong emergent candidate for applications in quantum information processing and sensing. We perform room temperature optically-detected magnetic resonance and spin echo measurements on an ensemble of vacan
cies and find the properties depend strongly on magnetic field. The spin echo decay time varies from less than 10 $mu$s at low fields to 80 $mu$s at 68 mT, and a strong field-dependent spin echo modulation is also observed. The modulation is attributed to the interaction with nuclear spins and is well-described by a theoretical model.
We demonstrate an all-optical thermometer based on an ensemble of silicon-vacancy centers (SiVs) in diamond by utilizing a temperature dependent shift of the SiV optical zero-phonon line transition frequency, $Deltalambda/Delta T= 6.8,mathrm{GHz/K}$.
Using SiVs in bulk diamond, we achieve $70,mathrm{mK}$ precision at room temperature with a sensitivity of $360,mathrm{mK/sqrt{Hz}}$. Finally, we use SiVs in $200,mathrm{nm}$ nanodiamonds as local temperature probes with $521,mathrm{ mK/sqrt{Hz}}$ sensitivity. These results open up new possibilities for nanoscale thermometry in biology, chemistry, and physics, paving the way for control of complex nanoscale systems.
