Description
Single-photon emitters (SPEs) are vital components for advanced quantum communication technologies. Hexagonal boron nitride (hBN), with its wide bandgap and van der Waals properties, presents a promising platform for room-temperature SPE operation. In this study, we substantially increase the density of quantum emitters in hBN by immersing the materiaes l in organic solvents, followed by thermal annealing in an argon (Ar) gas environment. This process not only enhances the yield of quantum emitters but also stabiliztheir emission properties, offering a robust and scalable method for producing ultrabright single-photon sources.
