Various embodiments of the present invention are directed to methods for coupling semiconductor-based photonic devices to diamond. In one embodiment of the present invention, a method for coupling a photonic device with a diamond structure comprises embedding the diamond structure in a first substrate, where the first substrate comprises a first transparent material. The photonic device is formed in a semiconductor material, which is supported by a second substrate. An intermediate structure is formed by depositing a second transparent material over the photonic device. The second transparent material may have substantially the same refractive index as the first transparent material. The intermediate structure is then separated from the second substrate, and the intermediated structure is adhered to the first substrate so that the photonic device optically couples with the diamond structure.

Various embodiments of the present invention are directed to surface-plasmon-enhanced electromagnetic-radiation-emitting devices and to methods of fabricating these devices. In one embodiment of the present invention, an electromagnetic-radiation-emitting device comprises a multilayer core, a metallic device layer, and a substrate. The multilayer core has an inner layer and an outer layer, wherein the outer layer is configured to surround at least a portion of the inner layer. The metallic device layer is configured to surround at least a portion of the outer layer. The substrate has a bottom conducting layer in electrical communication with the inner layer and a top conducting layer in electrical communication with the metallic device layer such that the exposed portion emits surface-plasmon-enhanced electromagnetic radiation when an appropriate voltage is applied between the bottom conducting layer and the top conducting layer.
