Abstract

The generation of single photons with tunable, high spectral and single-photon purity are essential building blocks of quantum photonic technologies. I will discuss our progress on making high-quality single photon sources based on van der Waals materials including monolayers of WSe2 and hBN defects. In WSe2 we show very spectrally clean emission of high-purity single photons at a strain point in the wrinkles of hBN/WSe2 bilayers, cleaner than the single photon emission at substrate-defined nanopillars. We also study dynamic strain via the integration of ion-beam created hBN defects with drumhead mechanical resonators and study their optical properties.
