Using a nanomanipulation technique a nanodiamond with a single nitrogen vacancy center is placed directly on the surface of a gallium phosphide photonic crystal cavity. A Purcell-enhancement of the fluorescence emission at the zero phonon line (ZPL) by a factor of 12.1 is observed. The ZPL coupling is a first crucial step toward future diamond-based integrated quantum optical devices.

We observe cavity-enhanced ensemble fluorescence of nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond, showing Purcell-enhancement of the Zero Phonon Line (ZPL). The emission features temporal bunching of ZPL photons, indicating collective emission that can be attributed to superfluorescence.
