The resonant high-index nanostructures open opportunities for control many optical effects via optically-induced electric and magnetic Mie resonances, mostly localized inside the structures. Especial interest such nanostructures represent for quantum emitters placed inside, that makes possible enhancement of quantum source emission through resonant coupling to localized modes. We have proposed the concept of active dielectric nanoantennas based on nanodiamonds with embedded NV-centers. The study of theoretically dependence of optical properties of this system on the spectral position of the resonant modes has demonstrated that that at some sizes of the diamond spherical particles and certain position of the dipole in the sphere the Purcell factor can achieve the value of 30. We have demonstrated experimentally that the photoluminescence properties of the NV-centers can be controlled via scattering resonances and observed a decrease of the NV-centers lifetime in the studied diamond particles, as compared to nonresonant nanodiamonds. These results are in a good agreement with our theoretical calculations for the average Purcell factor for multiple NV-centers within a nanoparticle. The simplicity of the proposed concept compared to existing photonic cavity systems and applicability for a wide range of color centers in diamond make active diamond nanoantenna an effective tool for creating controllable emitting elements in the visible range for future nanophotonic devices.
