Integration of solid state quantum emitters into nanophotonic circuits is a critical step towards fully on-chip quantum photonic based technologies. Among potential materials platforms, quantum emitters in hexagonal boron nitride have emerged over the last years as viable candidate. While the fundamental physical properties have been intensively studied over the last years, only few works have focused on the emitter integration into photonic resonators. Yet, for a potential quantum photonic material platform, the integration with nanophotonic cavities is an important cornerstone, as it enables the deliberate tuning of the spontaneous emission and the improved readout of distinct transitions for that quantum emitter. In this work, we demonstrate the resonant tuning of an integrated monolithic hBN quantum emitter in a photonic crystal cavity through gas condensation at cryogenic temperature. We resonantly coupled the zero phonon line of the emitter to a cavity mode and demonstrate emission enhancement and lifetime reduction, with an estimation for the Purcell factor of ~ 15.

Quantum emitters in van der Waals (vdW) materials have attracted lots of attentions in recent years, and shown great potentials to be fabricated as quantum photonic nanodevices. Especially, the single photon emitter (SPE) in hexagonal boron nitride (
hBN) emerges with the outstanding room-temperature quantum performances, whereas the ubiquitous blinking and bleaching restrict its practical applications and investigations critically. The bubble in vdW materials exhibits the stable structure and can modify the local bandgap by strains on nanoscale, which is supposed to have the ability to fix this photostability problem. Here we report a bubble-induced high-purity SPE in hBN under ambient conditions showing stable quantum-emitting performances, and no evidence of blinking and bleaching for one year. Remarkably, we observe the nontrivial successive activating and quenching dynamical process of the fluorescent defects at the SPE region under low pressures for the first time, and the robust recoverability of the SPE after turning back to the atmospheric pressure. The pressure-tuned performance indicates the SPE origins from the lattice defect isolated and activated by the local strain induced from the bubble, and sheds lights on the future high-performance quantum sources based on hBN.
Hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) is an emerging layered material that plays a key role in a variety of two-dimensional devices, and has potential applications in nanophotonics and nanomechanics. Here, we demonstrate the first cavity optomechanical syste
m incorporating hBN. Nanomechanical resonators consisting of hBN beams with predicted thickness between 8 nm and 51 nm were fabricated using electron beam induced etching and positioned in the optical nearfield of silicon microdisk cavities. A 160 fm/$sqrt{text{Hz}}$ sensitivity to the hBN nanobeam motion is demonstrated, allowing observation of thermally driven mechanical resonances with frequencies between 1 and 23 MHz, and mechanical quality factors reaching 1100 at room temperature in high vacuum. In addition, the role of air damping is studied via pressure dependent measurements. Our results constitute an important step towards realizing integrated optomechanical circuits employing hBN.
Hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) is a wide bandgap van der Waals material that is emerging as a powerful platform for quantum optics and nanophotonics. In this work, we demonstrate whispering gallery mode silica microresonators hybridized with thin laye
rs of epitaxially grown hBN that exhibit high optical quality factor $> 7 times 10^5$. Measurements of the effect of hBN thickness on optical $Q$ and comparison with a theoretical model allows the linear optical absorption coefficient of the hBN films to be estimated. These high-$Q$ devices will be useful for applications in quantum and nonlinear optics, and their hybridized geometry provides a sensitive platform for evaluating losses in hBN and other 2D materials.
Solid-state single-photon emitters (SPEs) such as the bright, stable, room-temperature defects within hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) are of increasing interest for quantum information science applications. To date, the atomic and electronic origins of
SPEs within hBN are not well understood, and no studies have reported photochromism or explored cross-correlations between hBN SPEs. Here, we combine irradiation-time dependent measures of quantum efficiency and microphotoluminescence (${mu}$PL) spectroscopy with two-color Hanbury Brown-Twiss interferometry to enable an investigation of the electronic structure of hBN defects. We identify photochromism in a hBN SPE that exhibits cross-correlations and correlated quantum efficiencies between the emission of its two zero-phonon lines.
Hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN), one of the hallmark van der Waals (vdW) layered crystals with an ensemble of attractive physical properties, is playing increasingly important roles in exploring two-dimensional (2D) electronics, photonics, mechanics,
and emerging quantum engineering. Here, we report on the demonstration of h-BN phononic crystal waveguides with designed pass and stop bands in the radio frequency (RF) range and controllable wave propagation and transmission, by harnessing arrays of coupled h-BN nanomechanical resonators with engineerable coupling strength. Experimental measurements validate that these phononic crystal waveguides confine and support 15 to 24 megahertz (MHz) wave propagation over 1.2 millimeters. Analogous to solid-state atomic crystal lattices, phononic bandgaps and dispersive behaviors have been observed and systematically investigated in the h-BN phononic waveguides. Guiding and manipulating acoustic waves on such additively integratable h-BN platform may facilitate multiphysical coupling and information transduction, and open up new opportunities for coherent on-chip signal processing and communication via emerging h-BN photonic and phononic devices.
