Researchers from the Photonics Research Group, an imec research group at Ghent University and MIT, announced that they have integrated single-photon emitters in 2D layered materials with a Silicon Nitride photonic chip. Even for moderate quantum yields, dielectric cavities could be designed such that the single-photon extraction into the guided mode can reach unity. The results, published in Nature Communications, provide a crucial step in fundamental quantum photonics and 2D materials researc...
