A key focus of our photonic pilot line in 2025 was developing capabilities to form and control colour centers in silicon: our quantum emitters! Our project exploring ex-situ generation methods delivered very fruitful results, now wrapped up in a paper just published online: arxiv.org/abs/2601.17919

Colour Centre Formation in Silicon-On-Insulator for On-Chip Photonic Integration

Colour centres in silicon have great potential as single photon sources for quantum technologies. Some of them - like the T centre - also possess optically-active spins that enable spin-photon interfa...
