This work presents a hybrid plasmonic waveguide platform [2,3] which enables efficient de-focusing of strongly Purcell enhanced quantum emitter fluorescence by coupling emitters to a highly confined non-resonant plasmonic waveguide mode. Accessing technologically relevant wavelengths, we demonstrate the working principle and efficient operation of our platform throughout the entire telecommunications C-band using erbium ion emitters.
