| contents | Deterministic creation of quantum emitters with high single-photon-purity and excellent indistinguishability is essential for practical applications in quantum information science. Many successful attempts have been carried out in hexagonal boron nitride showing its capability of hosting room temperature quantum emitters. However, most of the existing methods produce emitters with heterogeneous optical properties and unclear creation mechanisms. Here, the authors report a deterministic creation of identical room temperature quantum emitters using masked-carbon-ion implantation on freestanding hBN flakes. Quantum emitters fabricated by our approach showed thermally limited monochromaticity with an emission center wavelength distribution of 590.7 +- 2.7 nm, a narrow full width half maximum of 7.1 +- 1.7 nm, excellent brightness (1MHz emission rate), and extraordinary stability. Our method provides a reliable platform for characterization and fabrication research on hBN based quantum emitters, helping to reveal the origins of the single-photon-emission behavior in hBN and favoring practical applications, especially the industrial-scale production of quantum technology. |
