Superradiantly enhanced emission of SiV diamond color centers was achieved via numerically optimized concave plasmonic nanoresonators. Advantages of different numbers of SiV color centers, diamond-silver (bare) and diamond-silver-diamond (coated) core-shell nanoresonator types, spherical and ellipsoidal geometries were compared. Indistinguishable superradiance is reached via four color centers, which is accompanied by line-width narrowing except in a coated ellipsoidal nanoresonator that outperforms its bare counterpart in superradiance. Seeding of both spherical and bare ellipsoidal nano-resonators with six color centers results in larger fluorescence enhancement and better overridden superradiance thresholds simultaneously. Both phenomena are the best optimized in a six color centers seeded ellipsoidal bare nanoresonator according to the pronounced bad-cavity characteristics.
