The results of the study of the angular dependence of the photoluminescence of silicon-vacancy color centers in diamond microscopic hemispheres are presented. It is experimentally demonstrated that the use of a glass microsphere with a diameter of 200 μm and a microlens with a numerical aperture of NA=0.9 in the scheme of recording the photoluminescence signal allows achieving a tenfold increase in the intensity of the photoluminescence signal of the zero-phonon line of the silicon-vacancy color center. Due to the effective collimation of radiation by the microsphere, it became possible to narrow the angular dependence of the color center photoluminescence many times. Keywords: diamond microparticles, color centers, microsphere, radiation collimation.
