Abstract
Laser cooling of solids currently has a temperature floor of 50-100K. We propose a method that could overcome this using defects, such as diamond color centers, with narrow electronic manifolds and bright optical transitions. It exploits the dressed states formed in strong fields which extend the set of phonon transitions and have tunable energies. This allows an enhancement of the cooling power and diminishes the effect of inhomogeneous broadening. We demonstrate these effects theoretically for the silicon vacancy and the germanium vacancy, and discuss the role of background absorption, phonon-assisted emission, and nonradiative decay.
