Abstract
Emerging quantum information technologies require a source that emits single photons at predetermined times under electrical pumping. Color centers in diamond attract considerable attention as a room-temperature single-photon source. However, their electroluminescence has been shown only in steady-state and not on-demand. Here, we show how to control the single-photon electroluminescence (SPEL) of SiV centers in a proposed diamond diode and switch SiV center SPEL rate from 2 cps to 1 Mcps and vice versa in less than 3 ns. Our findings bring closer on-demand electrically-driven single-photon sources operating at room temperature.
