Instabilities in nanodiamond nitrogen-vacancy centre single photon sources under prolonged pulsed excitation

Colour centres in nanodiamonds provide robust sources of fluorescence and can be used as triggered sources of single photons at room temperature. However, practical devices require stability over thousands of hours of operation, and the use of strong pulsed optical excitation, placing significant bu...
